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

Gliomas are the most common form of intrinsic primary brain tumors, that extensively invade the surrounding normal brain tissue. The failure of chemotherapy treatment of these tumors is chiefly attributed to drug-resistance. From human glioblastoma we developed two cell sublines resistant to cisplatin due to acute (AT cells) or continuous (CT cells) treatment with clinically relevant doses of cisplatin. We examined their sensitivity to different cytostatics by colorimetric MTT assay. The concentrations of urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) were determined by the ELISA assay. The results reveal that both AT and CT cells became resistant to cisplatin and vincristine; AT cells became resistant also to etoposide. Both AT and CT cells did not significantly change their sensitivity to doxorubicin, 5-fluorouracil and chlorambucil. Concentrations of uPA and PAI-1 were increased in CT cells, with no change in AT cells. In the conditioned medium of both, AT and CT cells, the level of uPA were increased. No differences in concentrations of PAI-1 in the conditioned medium of these cells were found. Thus, our results show that drug-resistance of glioblastoma cells may be accompanied with the increased levels of markers for tumor invasion.
