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

Cancer, a major public health problem, is one of the world's top leading causes of death. Common treatments for cancer include cytotoxic chemotherapy, surgery, targeted drugs, endocrine therapy, and immunotherapy. However, despite the outstanding achievements in cancer therapies during the last years, resistance to conventional chemotherapeutic agents and new targeted drugs is still the major challenge. In the present review, we explain the different mechanisms involved in cancer therapy and the detailed outlines of cancer drug resistance regarding multidrug resistance-associated proteins (MRPs) and their role in treatment failures by common chemotherapeutic agents. Further, different modulators of MRPs are presented. Finally, we outlined the models used to analyze MRP transporters and proposed a future impact that may set up a base or pave the way for many researchers to investigate the cancer MRP further.
