Specifically regulated genes in malignant melanoma tissues identified by subtractive hybridization.
Article in British journal of cancer, 2000. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
A polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based subtractive hybridization technique was used to identify transformation-related genes in malignant melanoma. Melanoma biopsies were compared with tissues of benign melanocytic naevi and 549 gene fragments were screened using arrayed filters. Thirty-eight clones were confirmed to be differentially expressed representing 30 different genes (18 melanoma-specific and 12 naevus-specific genes). To further confirm differential gene expression, Northern blot analyses with six of the 30 genes as probes were performed. All six were differentially expressed in benign and malignant melanocytic lesions, specifically dbpB/YB-1, 67-kDa laminin receptor, CAGH-3, 71-kDa heat shock protein and two unknown genes. The expression levels of these genes were then analysed in 50 different tissues to determine their overall expression profile. In conclusion, the technique of PCR-based subtractive hybridization in combination with arrayed filters allows detection of differences in gene expression even in tissues from which high-quality RNA is hard to isolate. The genes identified in this study are of interest because of their potential role in the pathogenesis of malignant melanoma.
