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

REGb cell line, a highly immunogenic tumor cell variant isolated from a rat colon cancer, yields regressive tumors when injected into syngeneic hosts. We previously demonstrated that REGb tumor immunogenicity was related to the capacity of releasing dead cells in vivo. Also, in vitro, REGb cell monolayers release dead cells, especially when cultured in serum-free medium. In the current study, we show that the release of dead cells results from an atypical death process associating features of necrosis and apoptosis. In spite of features considered as hallmarks of caspase-dependent apoptosis, including chromatin fragmentation and DNA oligonucleosomal cleavage, caspases are not activated and caspase inhibitors are ineffective to prevent REGb cell death. In contrast with a number of other types of cell death, the spontaneous death of REGb cells in culture depends on de novo protein synthesis as this death is blocked by low doses of the mRNA translation inhibitor cycloheximide. This unusual mode of cell death that associates necrotic and apoptotic features could provide optimal conditions for triggering a specific immune response.
