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

Protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) is the primary type II methyltransferase that mainly catalyzes symmetric demethylation of arginine residues in both histone and nonhistone proteins. Increasing evidence has demonstrated that PRMT5 is indispensable in tumorigenesis and acquired therapeutic resistance in multiple malignancies. This review summarizes the clinical significance of PRMT5 in solid tumors such as lung cancer, breast cancer, and glioblastoma, its role in tumor immunology, and current clinical trials of PRMT5 inhibitors, and discusses the clinical status, current dilemma, and future perspectives of PRMT5 inhibition as a novel therapeutic strategy.
