1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The discovery of novel compound classes endowed with biological activity is at the heart of chemical biology and medicinal chemistry research. This enables novel biological insights and inspires new approaches to the treatment of diseases. Cancer cells frequently exhibit altered glycolysis and glucose metabolism and an increased glucose demand. Thus, targeting glucose uptake and metabolism may open up novel opportunities for the discovery of compounds that differentiate between normal and malignant cells. This review discusses the different chemical approaches to the development of novel inhibitors of glucose uptake through facilitative glucose transporters (GLUTs), and focusses on the most advanced and potent inhibitor classes known to date. GLUT inhibitors may find application not only in the treatment of cancer, but also of other proliferative diseases that exhibit glucose addiction.
