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

In the ongoing battle against cancer, the natural world provides promising inspiration for designing novel therapeutic strategies. The field of comparative oncology offers a valuable source of such inspiration. By combining evolutionary biology, ecology, veterinary medicine and clinical oncology, comparative oncology aims to better understand cancer, especially by highlighting taxa that are strongly resistant or susceptible to cancer and to identify the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying the remarkable cancer resistance of some taxa. Such studies hold profound implications for human cancer research and treatment, and increase the probability of detecting therapeutic avenues that are non-toxic to healthy cells and tissues. This Perspective underscores the importance of comparative oncology, emphasizes its relevance, and showcases recent breakthroughs in identifying natural cancer resistance mechanisms and opportunities for clinical translation. We advocate for a better integration of cancer research on non-conventional model species into oncology and we urge enhanced cooperation between clinicians and comparative oncologists to advance cancer prevention or treatment strategies.
