Immediate early genes induced by H-Ras in thyroid cells.
Article in Oncogene, 2001. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Expression of oncogenic v-H-Ras in the thyroid cell line FRTL-5 (FRTL-5(Ras)) results in uncontrolled proliferation, loss of thyroid-specific gene expression and tumorigenicity. Concomitant expression of constitutively activated MEK and Rac, two major H-Ras downstream effectors, in FRTL-5 (FRTL-5(MEK/Rac)) recapitulates H-Ras effects on proliferation and morphology. In contrast to FRTL-5(Ras), however, FRTL-5(MEK/Rac) cells remain differentiated and are not tumorigenic. To find H-Ras induced genes potentially responsible for tumorigenicity and loss of differentiation, we have used subtractive suppression hybridization (SSH), a PCR-based cDNA subtraction technique, between de-differentiated and tumorigenic FRTL-5(Ras) cells and differentiated and non-tumorigenic FRTL-5(MEK/Rac) cells. We examined 800 of the cDNA clones obtained after subtraction and verified their levels of expression in the two cell lines by reverse northern, identifying 337 H-Ras induced genes. By sequence analysis, we clustered 57 different genes. Among these, 39 were known genes (involved in diverse signal transduction processes regulating mitogenic activity, cell survival, cytoskeletal reorganization, stress response and invasion) while the remaining 18 clones were novel genes. Among the 57 H-Ras specific clones, we identified those genes whose expression is induced early by H-Ras. We suggest that these immediate-early genes may play a crucial role in H-Ras-mediated transformation in thyroid epithelial cells.
