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

Characterizing the effect of combination therapies is vital for treating diseases like cancer. We introduce correlated drug action (CDA), a baseline model for the study of drug combinations in both cell cultures and patient populations, which assumes that the efficacy of drugs in a combination may be correlated. We apply temporal CDA (tCDA) to clinical trial data, and demonstrate the utility of this approach in identifying possible synergistic combinations and others that can be explained in terms of monotherapies. Using MCF7 cell line data, we assess combinations with dose CDA (dCDA), a model that generalizes other proposed models (e.g., Bliss response-additivity, the dose equivalence principle), and introduce Excess over CDA (EOCDA), a new metric for identifying possible synergistic combinations in cell culture.
