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

Breast cancer (BC) is the most incidental cancer in women. Patients' living conditions and survival rates have significantly improved with the success of two first-line endocrine therapies of selective estrogen-receptor modulators (SERMs from 1977) and aromatase inhibitors (AIs from 1995). Unfortunately, both therapies have produced significant resistance. AI resistance reaches 50% in metastatic estrogen-dependent BC cases, leading oncologists to seek a substitute for current therapies. We target the reductive 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 7 (17β-HSD7), which stimulates the synthesis of the active estrogen estradiol (E2) and reduces the potent androgen dihydrotestosterone (DHT) simultaneously, triggering negative feedback on 17β-HSD7 expression. INH7(464), an improved 17β-HSD7 inhibitor, efficiently blocks estrogen conversion at an IC
