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

With the advance in the molecular understanding of cancers and proliferative disorders new approaches to managing these diseases may become feasible. It has been recognized that a key feature of these diseases is the pathological alteration in the molecular machineries of signalling pathways. This recognition which began to emerge in the early 1980s induced us to explore the possibility of targetting the aberrant signalling pathways for disease therapy. I now present evidence for the validity of the approach.
