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

Aggregation chimeras were formed between C57BL/6 mice heterozygous for the Apc(min) (Min) mutation and wild-type SWR mice, that differ in their Pla2g2a status, a modifier of Apc(min), and also in their resistance to intestinal polyp formation. Variation in the dolichos biflorus agglutinin-staining patterns of the intestines of these mouse strains was used to determine the chimeric composition of the intestine in individual mice and to examine the clonal composition of adenomas. Macroscopic adenoma numbers in chimeric mice were compared with the expected adenoma numbers based on the percentage of C57BL/6J-Apc(min/+) epithelium in individual mice. These results unexpectedly show that there was no apparent inhibitory effect of the SWR-derived (Pla2g2a wild-type) tissue on adenoma formation in the C57BL/6J-Apc(min/+) epithelium. This suggests that the main genetic modifiers of the Min phenotype act at a cellular or crypt-restricted level with no discernable systemic effect. All adenomas were seen to contain C57BL/6J-Apc(min/+)-derived epithelium, confirming that the germ-line mutation of the mApc gene is necessary to initiate tumorigenesis in this model system, and that the mApc gene acts in a cell autonomous fashion.
