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

Tyrosine kinase domains dynamically fluctuate between two main structural forms that are referred to as type I (DFG-in) or type II (DFG-out) conformations. Comprehensive data comparing type I and type II inhibitors are currently lacking for NTRK fusion-driven cancers. Here we used a type II NTRK inhibitor, altiratinib, as a model compound to investigate its inhibitory potential for larotrectinib (type I inhibitor)-resistant mutations in NTRK. Our study shows that a subset of larotrectinib-resistant NTRK1 mutations (V573M, F589L and G667C) retains sensitivity to altiratinib, while the NTRK1
