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

Current breast cancer therapies are unable to positively impact the lives of a significant proportion of diagnosed patients (24% based on 10-year survival rate). Breast cancer relapse and metastasis, the leading cause of breast cancer-associated deaths, is linked to the existence of breast cancer stem cells (CSCs). Redox-modulating metal complexes have been used to perturb the redox balance in breast CSCs and effect cell death. Here, we sought to expand this promising class of anti-breast CSC agents. Specifically, we report the synthesis, and anti-breast CSC properties of a series of copper(II) complexes bearing regioisomeric vanillin Schiff base ligands (
