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

Hyperactivation of YAP/TAZ, the Hippo pathway downstream effectors, is common in human cancer. The requirement of YAP/TAZ for cancer cell survival in preclinical models, prompted the development of pharmacological inhibitors that suppress their transcriptional activity. However, systemic YAP/TAZ inhibition may sometimes have unpredictable patient outcomes, with limited or even adverse effects because YAP/TAZ action is not simply tumor promoting but also tumor suppressive in some cell types. Here, we review the role of the Hippo pathway in distinct tumor cell populations, discuss the impact of inhibiting Hippo output on tumor growth, and examine current developments in YAP/TAZ inhibitors.
