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

The prohibitin (PHB) family, including PHB1 and its homolog PHB2, is ubiquitously located in different cellular compartments and plays roles in fundamental cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Accumulating evidence has indicated that this family contributes to the development of numerous diseases in particular cancers. Aberrant expressions of PHBs can been observed in diverse types of human cancer. Depending on their cell compartment-specific attributes and interacting proteins, PHBs are tightly linked to almost all aspects of cancer biology and have distinct bidirectional functions of tumor-suppression or tumor-promotion. However, the roles of PHBs in cancer have yet to be fully characterized and understood. This review provides an updated overview of the pleiotropic effects of PHBs and emphasizes their characteristic roles in each cancer respectively, with the great expectation to identify potential targets for therapeutic approaches and promising molecular biomarkers for cancer diagnosis and prognostic monitor.
