The role of RAC1 in resistance to targeted therapies in cancer.
Review in Small GTPases, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
RAC1 is a small 21 kDa RHO GTPase that plays a pivotal role in regulating actin cytoskeletal dynamics and cell growth. Alterations in the activity of RAC1 are implicated in a range of diseases, including cancer. Increased RAC1 activity, due to overexpression and/or activating mutations, drives transcriptional upregulation, reactive oxygen species production, mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition, membrane ruffling, and uncontrolled cell proliferation, which are hallmarks of an oncogenic phenotype. While RAC1-activating mutations alone do not appear sufficient to transform cells, their combination with other common mutations, such as BRAF, NRAS, or NF1, have been linked to drug resistance and significantly worsen patient prognosis and hinder treatment responses. The precise mechanisms underlying drug resistance, and the regulation of
