Cancer metastasis to the bone: Mechanisms and animal models (Review).
Review in Oncology letters, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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 majority of cancer-related deaths result from tumor metastasis, with bone metastasis occurring in almost all types of malignant tumors. Understanding the mechanism by which tumors metastasize to bone is critical for the identification of novel therapeutic targets. A large amount of research has been carried out using animal models, and these models have been crucial in advancing the fundamental understanding of cancer. However, current models are limited; although they can mimic specific stages of the metastatic process, they are not able to replicate the entire process from tumorigenesis to bone metastasis. The present review describes the molecular changes that occur in the intraosseous microenvironment of bone metastases, including osteolytic and osteoblastic types, and summarizes advancements in animal models of bone metastasis.
