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

TP53, a crucial tumor suppressor gene, is the most commonly mutated gene in human cancers. Aside from losing its tumor suppressor function, mutant p53 (mutp53) often acquires inherent, novel oncogenic functions, which is termed "gain-of-function". Emerging evidence suggests that mutp53 is highly associated with advanced malignancies and poor prognosis, which makes it a target for development of novel cancer therapies. Herein, we provide a summary of our knowledge of the mutp53 types and mutp53 spectrum in cancers. The mechanisms of mutp53 accumulation and gain-of-function are also summarized. Furthermore, we discuss the gain-of-function of mutp53 in cancers: genetic instability, ferroptosis, microenvironment, and stemness. Importantly, the role of mutp53 in the clinic is also discussed, particularly with regard to chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Last, emphasis is given to emerging strategies on how to target mutp53 for tumor therapy. Thus, this review will contribute to better understanding of the significance of mutp53 as a target for therapeutic strategies.
