Identification and characterization of a novel human hepatocellular carcinoma-associated gene.
Article in British journal of cancer, 2001. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
To investigate liver cancer-associated genes and to explore the molecular basis of liver cancer genesis, we have cloned a novel hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)-related gene with a transcript of 2520 base pairs in length named HCCA2 by mRNA differential display polymerase chain reaction (DDPCR) and screening a placenta cDNA library. No significant homologous protein with known genes was found. Western blot analysis showed that HCCA2 could be expressed in transfected 293 cells. Northern hybridization analysis showed that HCCA2 mRNA was expressed in 79% (34/43) patients with HCC, most of whom had significantly high expression in HCC tissues, while not expressed in corresponding noncancerous liver tissues. The clinical pathological data showed that the HCCA2 was significantly associated with the invasion of tumour capsule (P = 0.0007) and the expression of ki-67 protein (P = 0.0022). Immunohistochemical staining confirmed that the HCCA2 protein was localized in cytoplasm of liver cancer tissues. According to amino acid analysis of the protein and its localization, it may play a role in a cascade of intracellular signal transduction because the protein was characterized with two Src homology 3 (SH3) binding-domains and several functional motifs of phosphorylation.
