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

Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in men worldwide, with bone metastasis being the predominant driver of morbidity and mortality in advanced stages. This underscores the urgent need for innovative therapeutic strategies to address skeletal metastasis and improve patient outcomes. Niclosamide, a long-standing anthelminthic drug, has emerged as a promising multipathway modulator against cancer hallmarks. Here, we propose a nanotechnology-enabled repurposing of niclosamide, hypothesizing that its formulation into smart, targeted nanohybrids could not only suppress prostate tumor growth but also inhibit its dissemination to the skeletal system. We discuss the molecular rationale, design considerations, and translational outlook for nanoengineered niclosamide in the context of metastatic prostate cancer.
