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

Amplification at the long arm of chromosome 8 occurs in a large fraction of breast and prostate cancers. To clone the target genes for this amplification, we used suppression subtraction hybridization to identify overexpressed genes in the breast cancer cell line SK-Br-3, which harbors amplification at 8q (8q21 and 8q23-q24). A differentially expressed gene identified by SSH, the p40 subunit of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 (eIF3), was localized to 8q23 and found to be highly amplified and overexpressed in the breast and prostate cancer cell lines studied. High-level amplification of eIF3-p40 was found in 30% of hormone-refractory prostate tumors and in 18% of untreated primary breast tumors. In the vast majority of the cases, p40 and c-myc were amplified with equal copy numbers. Tumors with higher copy numbers of p40 than c-myc were also found. Expression of p40 mRNA was analyzed with in situ hybridization. The amplification of eIF3-p40 gene was associated with overexpression of its mRNA, as expected for a functional target gene of the amplification. These results imply that genomic aberrations of translation initiation factors, such as eIF3-p40, may contribute to the pathogenesis of breast and prostate cancer.
