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

Zinc finger E-box binding homeobox 1 (ZEB1) is a member of the zinc finger homeodomain transcription factor family, with a pivotal role in regulating the epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) process. Increasing evidence suggests that ZEB1 is overexpressed in liver tumors, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), and it correlates with advanced disease features and reduced overall survival. Here, we examine ZEB1 molecular functions, regulatory networks and contribution to tumorigenesis. We also discuss the emerging therapeutic strategies and future research directions aimed at targeting the ZEB1 molecular network to improve the outcome of liver cancer patients.
