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

In order to identify genes involved in head and neck carcinogenesis, we compared the gene expression profile in matched primary normal epithelial cells and primary head and neck cancer cells from the same patients. A cDNA microarray analysis consisting of 12 530 human genes revealed significant changes in the expression of 213 genes, with 91 genes being up-regulated and 122 being down-regulated. This comprehensive list of genes includes those associated with signal transduction (growth factors), cell structure, cell cycle, transcription, apoptosis, and cell-cell adhesion. Further analysis of nine genes involved in cell-cell interaction, using Western blot and/or reverse transcription (RT)-PCR of four paired cell lines supported the reliability of our microarray analysis. More specifically, our study provides the first evidence that claudin-7 and connexin 31.1 are down-regulated in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) compared to normal cells. These findings provide a large body of information regarding gene expression profiles associated with head and neck carcinogenesis, and also represent a source of potential targets for HNSCC prevention and/or therapeutics.
