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

Metastatic prostate cancer (PCa) continues to be a major cause of death in males, despite advances in treatment. Most treatment focuses on targeting the Androgen Receptor (AR), the main oncogene responsible for driving most prostate tumors. Despite these therapies targeting AR, the majority of patients still succumb to AR-driven disease. Therefore, there is a critical need for understanding how AR functions to promote prostate cancer growth and identify alternative therapeutic targets in AR-driven PCa. One avenue garnering attention is targeting epigenetic regulators that promote AR-activity; however, the importance of epitranscriptomic regulators, like those that modify mRNAs, is not well understood. Here, we identify a new role for the key catalytic subunit of the RNA N6-methyladenosine (m
