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

The Hippo pathway is a highly conserved signalling network that controls tissue growth and cell fate, responding to physical properties of the tissue microenvironment and cell biological features such as adhesion and polarity. Hippo signalling perturbation is associated with several human diseases, particularly various solid cancers. Hippo pathway-targeted therapies are beginning to emerge for the treatment of cancer, most of which are focused on disrupting the ability of the YAP and TAZ transcription co-activator proteins to promote transcription of genes with their cognate TEAD1-4 DNA binding proteins. Recently, TEAD inhibitors have shown promise in a phase I clinical trial in cancers that are enriched for Hippo pathway mutations, such as mesothelioma. Moreover, Hippo pathway-targeted therapies have great potential to be combined with RAS-MAPK pathway inhibitors, given the close functional relationship that these signalling pathways share in development and disease.
