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

To investigate the influence of the proto-oncogene c-MYC on tumor development in different epithelial tissues which secrete Clara Cell Secretory Protein (uteroglobin, UG), transgenic mouse lines were established expressing the human c-MYC proto-oncogene under the control of the rabbit UG-promoter. These mice expressed the c-MYC transgene in Clara cells and other UG expressing tissues like uterus and prostate. In the bronchioalveolar epithelium of the lung hyperplasias developed originating from Clara cells. Surprisingly, transgenics most frequently developed T-lymphoblastic lymphomas, a polycystic kidney phenotype and renal cell carcinoma derived from tubular epithelial cells, which are both tissues that had so far not been known to express UG. Immunohistological studies in UG/MYC transgenics and in a transgenic line (UG/eGFP) expressing Green Fluorescent Protein confirmed that the uteroglobin promoter is not only active in Clara cells, but also in tubular epithelial cells of the kidney and in lymphatic tissue. The UG/MYC transgenics will be useful to investigate the biochemical mechanisms underlying the development of carcinomas and the oncogenic properties of c-MYC in epithelial cells of various tissues.
