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

Rho family GTPases are a part of the Ras superfamily and are signaling hubs for many cellular processes. While the detailed understanding of Ras structure and function has led to tremendous progress in oncogenic Ras-targeted drug discovery, studies of the related Rho GTPases are still catching up as the recurrent cancer-related Rho GTPase mutations have only been discovered in the last decade. Like that of Ras, an in-depth understanding of the structural basis of how Rho GTPases and their mutants behave as key oncogenic drivers benefits the development of clinically effective therapies. Recent studies of structure dynamics in Rho GTPase structure-function relationship have added new twists to the conventional wisdom of Rho GTPase signaling mechanism.
