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

Recombinant Fibroblast Growth Factor-4 (FGF4) and FGF2 induce extracellular signal-regulated kinase-1/2 activation and DNA synthesis in murine aortic endothelial (MAE) cells. These cells co-express the IIIc/Ig-3 loops and the novel glycosaminoglycan-modified IIIc/Ig-2 loops isoforms of FGF receptor-2 (FGFR2). The affinity of FGF4/FGFR2 interaction is 20-30 times lower than that of FGF2 and is enhanced by heparin. Overexpression of FGF2 or FGF4 cDNA in MAE cells results in a transformed phenotype and increased proliferative capacity, more evident for FGF2 than FGF4 transfectants. Both transfectants induce angiogenesis when applied on the top of the chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane. However, in contrast with FGF2-transfected cells, FGF4 transfectants show a limited capacity to growth under anchorage-independent conditions and lack the ability to invade 3D fibrin gel and to undergo morphogenesis in vitro. Also, they fail to induce hemangiomas when injected into the allantoic sac of the chick embryo. In conclusion, although exogenous FGF2 and FGF4 exert a similar response in MAE cells, significant differences are observed in the biological behavior of FGF4 versus FGF2 transfectants, indicating that the expression of the various members of the FGF family can differently affect the behavior of endothelial cells and, possibly, of other cell types, including tumor cells.
