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

Metabolic reprogramming is a hallmark of cancer, playing a critical role in tumorigenesis by supporting cancer cell survival, proliferation, metastasis, and immune evasion. Oncogenic signaling pathways regulate key metabolic processes by orchestrating gene expression and enhancing metabolic enzyme activity, ensuring cancer cells meet their bioenergetic and biosynthetic demands. Here, we highlight the roles of major oncogenic metabolic signaling pathways, including phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT, Myc, p53, and hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), in driving metabolic rewiring. We provide a conceptual framework to understand why metabolic reprogramming occurs in tumor cells, how metabolic alterations contribute to tumorigenesis, metastasis, and immune evasion, and the therapeutic implications of targeting these metabolic vulnerabilities in cancer.
