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

Endometrial cancer (EC) harbors highly recurrent cell cycle pathway alterations, especially hyperactivation of the CCND1/CDK4/6 axis, raising the potential for use of CDK4/6 inhibitors in these cancers. In this study, we performed a genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9-based knockout screen to identify genes that modify the response to CDK4/6 inhibitors. We found that NIMA-related kinase-6 (NEK6) levels determine the anti-tumor effects of CDK4/6 inhibitors and that NEK6 was a synthetic lethal target of CDK4/6 inhibitors in EC. We further demonstrated that combined inhibition of NEK6 and CDK4/6 resulted in marked suppression of tumor growth
