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

backgroundFluoropyrimidine-induced toxicity is a main limitation of therapy. Currently, polymorphisms in the DPYD gene, which encodes the 5-FU activation enzyme dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD), are used to adjust the dosage and prevent toxicity. Despite the predictive value of DPYD genotyping, a great proportion of fluoropyrimidine toxicity cannot be solely explained by DPYD variations.

objectiveWe herein summarize additional sources of DPD enzyme activity variability, spanning from epigenetic regulation of DPYD expression, factors potentially inducing protein modifications, as well as drug-enzyme interactions that contribute to fluoropyrimidine toxicity.

resultsWhile seminal

conclusionsDPYD polymorphisms are the main source of DPD variability. A study on DPYD epigenetics (both transcriptionally and post-transcriptionally) holds promise to provide insights into molecular pathways of fluoropyrimidine toxicity. Additional post-translational DPD modifications, as well as DPD inhibition by other drugs, may explain a proportion of enzyme activity variability. Therefore, there is still a lot we can learn about the DPYD/DPD fluoropyrimidine-induced toxicity machinery.
