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

Clusterin is a highly conserved, widely distributed glycoprotein whose biological significance is still debated. Involved in many biological processes and disease states, clusterin is induced by cell injury and tissue regression, but is repressed during cell proliferation. We have previously reported that clusterin mRNA induction is associated with epithelial cell atrophy in the rat prostate and both clusterin transcript and protein accumulated in quiescent normal human skin fibroblasts. Here we show that transient clusterin overexpression, in SV40-immortalized human prostate epithelial cells (PNT2), resulted in increased accumulation of cells in the G(0)/G(1) phases of the cell cycle, accompanied by slowdown of cell cycle progression and decrease of DNA synthesis. The activities of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) and S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase (AdoMetDC), and the level of histone H3 mRNA (markers of cell proliferation) concomitantly decreased, while Gas1 mRNA (a marker of cell quiescence) accumulated. Thus it appears that clusterin, by opposing the effect of SV40 on the proliferation rate of PNT2 cells, acts as an anti-oncogene in the prostate, suggesting a role for this gene in controlling proliferation of normal and transformed prostate epithelial cells.
