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

Elucidations of the factors that promote the growth of disseminated tumor cells (DTCs) into life-threatening lesions stand to provide much needed prognostic and therapeutic targets of translational utility for patients with metastatic cancer. To identify such regulators, we conducted gain-of-function cDNA library screening to discover genes that foster prostate cancer cell colonization of mouse lungs as an experimental model. Our efforts identified the metabolic enzyme aldolase A (ALDOA) as a driver of cancer cell motility, anchorage-independent growth, and metastatic colonization, and as a prognosticator of adverse patient outcome across many malignancies, including prostate, breast, pancreatic, and liver cancers. Metabolomics coupled with biochemical and functional analyses revealed that ALDOA triggered the activation of adenosine-5'-monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK), which we demonstrate played essential promalignant activities in ALDOA-expressing cells. Collectively, these findings unveiled vivo approaches to identify metastatic colonization regulators and uncovered previously undescribed roles for ALDOA-AMPK pathway in tumor progression.
