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

Head and neck cancer (HNC) is one of the most common malignant tumors worldwide, and is prone to tumor recurrence and metastasis. At present, surgery combined with radiotherapy and chemotherapy is still the conventional treatment modality for patients with HNC. However, for patients with relapse or metastasis of HNC, the treatment outcome is not ideal, and the prognosis is poor. Thus, it is crucial to deepen the understand of tumor mechanisms. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) refer to covalent binding of small chemical molecular groups to amino-acid side-chain of proteins. Post-translational modification is an important regulator of protein function, and as such, a current research hotspot of epigenetics. In recent years, it has been found that tumor occurrence is often accompanied by the abnormality of PTMs. Indeed, the abnormality play an important role in tumor development, and can be used as a target for tumor diagnosis and treatment. To date, several types of protein PTMs involved in the development of HNC have been reported. This paper reviews the relationship between HNC and several major protein PTMs, including acetylation, methylation, and glycosylation, in order to provide clues for the future application about PTMs in diagnosis and treatment of HNC.
