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 cells undergo metabolic reprogramming to rely mostly on aerobic glycolysis (the Warburg effect). The increased glycolytic intake enhances the intracellular levels of reactive sugars and sugar metabolites. These reactive species can covalently modify macromolecules in a process termed glycation. Histones are particularly susceptible to glycation, resulting in substantial alterations to chromatin structure, function, and transcriptional output. Growing evidence suggests a link between dysregulated metabolism of tumors and cancer proliferation through epigenetic changes. This review discusses recent advances in the understanding of histone glycation, its impact on the epigenetic landscape and cellular fate, and its role in cancer. In addition, we investigate the possibility of using histone glycation as biomarkers and targets for anticancer therapeutics.
