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

Metastasis is a main cause of cancer-related death, and a deeper understanding of the metastatic process will inform more targeted and mechanistic approaches that can abrogate challenges in treatment efficacy and toxicity. Several steps throughout the metastatic cascade, from angiogenesis to secondary tumor formation, offer specific vulnerabilities to therapies that can lead to the decline or cessation of metastatic progression. A deeper understanding of the metastatic cascade also allows combination systemic therapies to be used synergistically. In this review, we describe current treatment modalities in the context of multiple steps of the metastatic cascade. We highlight their mechanisms and present their efficacy across multiple cancers. This work also presents targets within the metastatic cascade in need of more research that can advance the landscape of treatments and lead to the goal of metastatic cancer remission.
