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

Polo-like kinase 4 (PLK4) is a serine/threonine-protein kinase that plays a pivotal role in centriole biogenesis and, as such, represents a master regulator of centriole duplication. Due to its importance in cancer development and progression, PLK4 represents an attractive target for the development of novel therapeutics. Herein, we present a series of molecular degraders of PLK4, based on the highly selective PLK4 inhibitor centrinone, with the aim of targeting PLK4 for degradation
