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

retractionT. Liu, H. Zhang, S. Yi, L. Gu, and M. Zhou, "Mutual Regulation of MDM4 and TOP2A in Cancer Cell Proliferation," Molecular Oncology 13, no. 5 (2019): 1047-1058, https://doi.org/10.1002/1878-0261.12457. The above article, published online on 04 February 2019 in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com), has been retracted by agreement between the journal Editor-in-Chief, Kevin Ryan; FEBS Press; and John Wiley & Sons Ltd. The retraction has been agreed upon following an investigation into concerns raised by a third party, which revealed inappropriate image panel duplications between this (Figures 3B, 4C, and 5C) and other articles published previously by an overlapping group of authors in a different scientific context. The authors were unable to provide a satisfactory explanation and the original raw data, which has led the editors to lose confidence in the data presented. Therefore, the editors consider the conclusions substantially compromised and are retracting the paper.
