The article is wrong about the fact that there is no medical evidence that it is effective.. There is actually a lot of peer-reviewed reasearch confirming anti-cancer properties for this plant :

It seems that the studies could be included as, "Ethanol extracted from Annona muricata L. has been shown to kill cancer cells in vitro, and inhibit tumor growth in vivo in animal models, but has not been studied in humans, has not been approved for therapeutic use in the United States, and currently there is no medical evidence that consuming the fruit has any impact on any metric of health." If added that way it at least indicates it's being studied while expressly stating that it is not fully studied nor approved for medical use in the US. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:300D:302:9100:E437:303D:6F41:6298 ( talk) 12:58, 27 June 2017 (UTC)
This article is outdated as there have been numerous reviews to show anticancer properties. SurgeonRT ( talk) 02:49, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

I just noticed that Soursop is not linked to its Russian version Сметанное_яблоко. Guess that both items should be merged:
but, not sure I know how to perform this. Can anybody help?
I have no doubt that all the most reliable sources conclude that this fruit is not a cancer treatment, but does it make sense to have an entire section called "Bogus cancer treatment"? That doesn't seem like particularly encyclopedic writing. I am editing it to "False cancer treatment claims", which is similar to the phrasing used in the article for bleach. 2601:14A:C301:1360:9127:7C89:6E80:A89F ( talk)
Preclinical in vitro and in vivo research studies have shown antiproliferative effects of graviola extracts. There has even been one clinical case in which a woman with metastatic, treatment-resistant breast cancer stabilized after using an extract made from graviola leaves. It is simply a matter of scientific fact that annonaceous acetogenins are effective cancer treatments in animal models. No human clinical trials have been done to date, and it is not approved by government bureaucracies, but there is space in the page for nuance. The current article is biased.
