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

In order to determine how glycosylation changes associated with cellular differentiation may be influenced by the basal cellular sialylation potential, the effect of retinoic acid (RA)-induced differentiation was investigated in neuroblastoma cells expressing differing levels (and activities) of the alpha2,6(N) sialyltransferase (ST6N) enzyme. The increase in ST activity was proportional to the basal cellular sialylation potentials with the high activity clones showing the greatest increase. This was paralleled by an up-regulation of the level of overall sialoglycoprotein glycosylation level. An increase in the levels of the polysialic acid (PSA) epitope was associated with a parallel increase in the levels of the neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) protein backbone although there was no overall change in the PSA:NCAM ratio following RA treatment.
