The role of focal adhesion kinase in bladder cancer: translation from
Article in Radiology and oncology, 2025. 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
backgroundFocal adhesion kinase (FAK), a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase, plays a crucial role in focal adhesion turnover by interfacing between the extracellular space, transmembrane integrins, and actin filaments. Its significance for the progression of several malignancies, including bladder cancer, has been well-documented. However, its precise role and the implications of its inhibition in bladder cancer tissues and urothelial MATERIALS AND

results
conclusionsTo our knowledge, this is the first report demonstrating the role of FAK and its inhibition across both normal and cancerous bladder urothelial models. This study highlights the critical role of FAK in the progression of human bladder cancer and establishes a foundation for exploring FAK inhibition as a potential therapeutic approach in bladder cancer treatment.
