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

Cancers of the breast and prostate are one of the leading causes of cancer deaths in women and men, respectively. Although several treatment options have been developed to transform these cancers into manageable chronic diseases, they still contribute to over 70 000 deaths each year in the United States. Though majority of these cancers belong to slow growing differentiated subtypes, the cancers evolve over time due to treatment-related pressure into aggressive treatment-resistant types. A mechanism attributed to the transformation of hormonal and other cancers into aggressive treatment-refractory cancers is "lineage plasticity," a term used to describe a switch in the cell type or lineage. Evolving evidences suggest that the Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK-STAT) pathway plays a key role in driving lineage plasticity. This review discusses the role of JAK-STAT signaling pathway in hormonal cancers' evolution into aggressive cancers and in treatment resistance, with focus on treatment-induced lineage plasticity.
