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

Trametinib (Trm) is a highly selective MEK inhibitor that potently and persistently abrogates ERK1/2 activation. Trm initially was used to treat BRAF V600E-mutated melanoma but its FDA-approved indications are expanding rapidly. Trm generally is well tolerated but it can cause dose-limiting cardiomyopathy and heart failure. Here we characterize a mouse model of Trm cardiotoxicity using complementary
