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

Elucidation of genetic alterations is an approach to understanding the underlying molecular mechanisms of progression of human prostate cancers. We have searched for genes differentially expressed in advanced prostate cancers using cDNA-representational difference analysis, and thereby isolated the Lsm1 as one of down-regulated gene. An Lsm1 expression vector was transfected into PC3 cells, normally featuring down-regulated Lsm1, and four transfectants were established. No differences in morphology or cell proliferation were evident in comparison with parent PC3 or PC3/mock-transfectants. In contrast, significant suppression of invasive potential or metastatic ability of Lsm1 transfectants was observed in the Matrigel chemoinvasion assay and in nude mice, respectively. With human prostate cancers, almost all of informative prostatectomised cases without neoadjuvant therapy showed allelic retention in the Lsm1 region, whereas refractory cancers frequently showed allelic loss in this region. No critical gene mutations were found in open reading frame of Lsm1 in prostate cancers examined by PCR-SSCP analysis, including localised and refractory cancers. These results suggest that Lsm1 is deeply involved in prostate cancer progression through its down-regulation, independent of any gene mutation.
