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

Cellular identity and physiologic function in mammary epithelial cells and in many breast cancers flow from the action of a network of master transcriptional regulators including estrogen receptor alpha, GATA3, and FOXA1. The last decade has seen the completion of multiple large sequencing projects focusing on breast cancer. These massive compendia of sequence data have provided a wealth of new information linking mutation in these transcription factors to alterations in tumor biology and transcriptional program. The emerging details on mutation in cancer, and direct experimental exploration of hypotheses based on it, are now providing a wealth of new information on the roles played by estrogen receptor alpha, GATA3, and FOXA1 in regulating gene transcription and how their combined action contributes to a network shaping cell function in both physiologic and disease states.
