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

backgroundMitogen activated protein kinases (MAPKs) play a central role in the regulation of both cell growth and differentiation. They are involved in signal transduction of oncogenes and growth factors. The role of MAPK in colonic carcinoma is unknown.

aimsTo establish whether the expression and activity of p42/44 MAPKs are altered in colorectal tumours as compared with normal mucosa.

methodsThe expression and activity of p42/p44 MAPK were investigated in 22 colorectal carcinomas, four adenomas, and the corresponding normal colorectal mucosa by the use of western blotting, immunoprecipitation, and in vitro kinase assays.

resultsAfter immunoprecipitation with an antibody specific for p42 MAPK, we found significant inactivation of p42 MAPK in colonic carcinomas as well as in adenomas, whereas most sample pairs showed only minor differences in p42 MAPK expression. Investigation of MAPK with an antibody capable of detecting both p42 and p44 MAPK showed a slight but significant decrease in p44 MAPK content in malignant tissues. With this antibody, only minor alterations in MAPK activity and no correlation with p42 MAPK activity were found.

conclusionsInactivation of p42 MAPK could be associated with colonic carcinogenesis.
