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

Drug resistance is a major problem associated with anticancer chemo- and immunotherapies. Recent advances in the understanding of resistance mechanisms have revealed that enzymes of the APOBEC3 (A3) family contribute to the development of drug resistance in multiple cancers. A3 enzymes are polynucleotide cytidine deaminases that convert cytosine to uracil (C→U) in single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and in this way protect humans against viruses and mobile retroelements. On the other hand, cancer cells use A3s, especially A3A and A3B, to mutate human DNA, and thus by increasing rates of evolution, cancer cells escape adaptive immune responses and resist drugs. However, as A3A and A3B are non-essential for primary metabolism, their inhibition opens up a strategy to augment existing anticancer therapies and suppress cancer evolution. To test our hypothesis that pre-shaped ssDNA mimicking the
