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 growth of solid tumours requires a blood supply provided by re-modeling of existing blood vessel endothelium (angiogenesis). Little is known about transcription regulators which are specific for the control of tumour angiogenesis. The proto-oncogene LMO2 encodes a LIM domain transcription regulator which controls angiogenesis during mouse embryogenesis where it regulates remodelling of the capillary network into mature vessels. We now show that Lmo2 expression is augmented in tumour endothelium such as mouse thymomas and human lung tumours. The functional significance of this Lmo2 expression was assessed in teratocarcinomas induced in nude mice by subcutaneous implantation of Lmo2-lacZ targeted ES cells. CD31-positive, sprouting endothelium of ES-cell origin occurred in teratocarcinomas from heterozygous Lmo2-lacZ ES cells but none occurred from null Lmo2-lacZ ES cells. Therefore, in this model Lmo2 is an obligatory regulator of neo-vascularization of tumours. These data suggest that LMO2 function may be a drug target in cancer and other conditions characterized by neo-vascularization.
