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

Distant spreading of metastatic tumor cells is still the leading cause of tumor death. Metastatic spreading is a complex process, in which epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is the primary and key event to promote it. Presently, extensive reviews have given insights on the occurrence of EMT at the primary tumor site that depends on invasive properties of tumor cells and the tumor-associated microenvironment. However, essential roles of circulation environment involved in tumor cell EMT is not well summarized. As a main constituent of the blood, platelet is increasingly found to work as an important activator to induce EMT. Therefore, this review aims to emphasize the novel role of platelet in EMT through signal communications between platelets and circulation tumor cells, and illustrate potent interventions aiming at their communications. It may give a complementary view of EMT in addition to the tissue microenvironment, help for better understand the hematogenous metastasis, and also illustrate theoretical and practical basis for the targeted inhibition. Video abstract.
