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

Growth inhibition by the TGF-beta s has been extensively studied in both normal and transformed mammary epithelial cells. It has been proposed that loss of autocrine TGF-beta mediated growth regulation is a critical event in breast tumorigenesis and several lines of in vitro and in vivo data support this hypothesis. However, a positive association between the expression of TGF-beta s by tumor cells and the progression or maintenance of breast cancinoma cells has been observed in many studies in in vivo tumor models. Possible mechanisms for these growth enhancing effects of TGF-beta include immunosuppression mediated by tumor TGF-beta s, enhanced angiogenesis, increased peritumoral stroma formation, and cell adhesion. The net effect of tumor cell TGF-beta on the biology of breast carcinogenesis would depend on the balance between autocrine growth inhibition of mammary epithelial cells and these growth enhancing effects.
