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

Around 30% of patients with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) breast cancer acquire resistance to endocrine therapy combined with cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i), which are first-line treatments in metastatic settings. Therefore, we aimed to identify loci associated with resistance to endocrine therapy and CDK4/6i; this was achieved using retroviral vectors, which randomly insert gene-disrupting elements into the genome, causing gene expression alterations and potentially leading to therapy resistance. ER-positive ZR75.1 breast cancer cells transduced with retroviral vectors were treated with endocrine (tamoxifen, fulvestrant) or CDK4/6i monotherapies (abemaciclib, palbociclib, ribociclib) or a combination of fulvestrant and ribociclib. DNA was extracted, and virus integration sites (VISs) were characterized according to the detection frequency and read depth using next-generation sequencing (VIS-NGS). Resistance-associated VIS loci were identified when differentially presented in treated samples compared to controls. Well-established tamoxifen resistance genes (
