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

The chaperonin-containing t-complex polypeptide 1 (CCT) is a hetero-oligomeric molecular chaperone that assists in the folding of actin, tubulin, and other cytosolic proteins. We recently reported that the expression level of CCT is closely correlated with growth rates of mammalian cultured cells. Here we examine the levels of CCT subunits and other molecular chaperones in tumor tissues of patients with hepatocelluar and colonic carcinoma, and compare them with nontumor tissues in the same patients. Expression levels of CCTbeta in tumor tissues was significantly higher than in nontumor tissues in all patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (n = 15) and 83% of patients with colonic carcinoma (n = 17). The increased level of CCT expression in colonic cancer cells was confirmed by immunohistochemistry with anti-CCTbeta antibody. The levels of CCTbeta were highly correlated (r = 0.606) with those of the proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), which was used as an indicator of cell growth. CCTalpha gave similar results, although the correlation with PCNA levels was weaker. Other cytosolic and endoplasmic reticulum chaperones also showed higher expression in significant numbers of tumor tissues but less frequently than that observed with CCT. These results suggest that CCT is up-regulated in rapidly proliferating tumor cells in vivo to effectively produce proteins required for growth, and may serve as a useful tumor marker because it is widely distributed in the cytosol.
