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

Persistence of drug-resistant breast cancer stem cells (brCSCs) after a chemotherapeutic regime correlates with disease recurrence and elevated mortality. Therefore, deciphering mechanisms that dictate their drug-resistant phenotype is imperative for designing targeted and more effective therapeutic strategies. The transcription factor SOX2 has been recognized as a protagonist in brCSC maintenance, and previous studies have confirmed that inhibition of SOX2 purportedly eliminated these brCSCs. However, pharmacological targeting of transcription factors like SOX2 is challenging due to their structural incongruities and intrinsic disorders in their binding interfaces. Therefore, transcriptional co-activators may serve as a feasible alternative for effectively targeting the brCSCs. Incidentally, transcriptional co-activators YAP/TAZ were found to be upregulated in CD44
