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

Breast cancer metastasis is associated with a poor prognosis and a high rate of mortality. Cathepsin L (CTSL) is a lysosomal cysteine protease that promotes tumor metastasis by degrading the extracellular matrix. Gene set enrichment analysis revealed that CTSL expression was higher in tumorous than in non-tumorous tissues of breast cancer patients and that high-level CTSL expression correlated positively with the epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Therefore, we hypothesized that inhibiting CTSL activity in tumor cells would prevent metastasis. In this study, we characterized the inhibitory activity of SnuCalCpI15, the I29 domain of a CTSL-like cysteine protease from Calotropis procera R. Br., and revealed that the propeptide stereoselectively inhibited CTSL in a reversible slow-binding manner, with an inhibitory constant (K
