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

Estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer is characterized by late recurrences following initial treatment. The epithelial cell fate transcription factor Grainyhead-like protein 2 (GRHL2) is overexpressed in ER-positive breast cancers and is linked to poorer prognosis as compared to ER-negative breast cancers. To understand how GRHL2 contributes to progression, GRHL2 was overexpressed in ER-positive cells. We demonstrated that elevated GRHL2 imparts plasticity with stem cell- and dormancy-associated traits. RNA sequencing and immunocytochemistry revealed that high GRHL2 not only strengthens the epithelial identity but supports a hybrid epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT). Proliferation and tumor studies exhibited a decrease in growth and an upregulation of dormancy markers, such as
