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 cell environment plays a pivotal role in determining cellular outcome, as well as cancer initiation, progression, and dissemination. Within this environment, in addition to the structural components, such as the extracellular matrix, there are various types of cells surrounding the tumor cells. Communication among these cells and the tumor cells via signaling pathways is important for tumor growth. Originally discovered in patients with immunodeficiency X-linked gammaglobulinemia, the Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) signaling pathway, known for its role in B cell maturation, is critical to cancer cell proliferation, metastasis and evasion of cancer eliminating cells. Given that BTK inhibitors have been FDA approved for chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma and that the majority of BTK studies have been focused on B cells, the use of BTK inhibitors as a future treatment strategy of solid tumors has yet to be evaluated. In this review, we summarize studies analyzing BTK signaling within the cells found in the tumor microenvironment, as well as clinical trial where BTK inhibitors are currently being used to target the tumor microenvironment as a way to combat solid tumors.
