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

Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL/Apo2L) has been shown to induce apoptosis in malignant cells without harming normal cells. To determine the antitumor potential of TRAIL against prostate cells, we undertook a comprehensive study that included eight prostate cancer cells lines (CWR22Rv1, Du145, DuPro, JCA-1, LNCaP, PC-3, PPC-1, and TsuPr1) and primary cultures of normal prostate epithelial cells (PrEC). Cells were tested for susceptibility to soluble TRAIL in the presence or absence of the chemotherapeutic agent doxorubicin. TRAIL was also delivered by an adenoviral vector. Our results reveal that Du145, DuPro, LNCap, TsuPr1, and PrEC were resistant to 100 ng/mL TRAIL. JCA-1 and PPC-1 were slightly sensitive (20% killing) and PC-3 and CWR22Rv1 exhibited the highest sensitivity to TRAIL (30% and 50% killing, respectively). The combination of 10 ng/mL TRAIL with doxorubicin resulted in 60-80% cytotoxicity in seven of eight prostate cancer cells. TRAIL-mediated apoptosis involved cleavage of Bid, caspase-3, and PARP, and required caspase-8 and -9 activity. Full-length TRAIL delivered by an adenoviral vector (AdTRAIL-IRES-GFP) killed prostate cancer cell lines and PrEC without requisite doxorubicin cotreatment. Therefore, expression of the transgene from a tissue-specific promotor would make gene therapy with AdTRAIL-IRES-GFP a possibility.
