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

Radiotherapy is a well established treatment for malignant gliomas. This study describes the migration, proliferation, and invasion behaviour of two human glioma cell lines (GaMg and U-87 Mg) grown as multicellular tumour spheroids after radiotherapy. Migration and proliferation studies were performed using conventional and accelerated fractionation up to 60 Gy and 59.4 Gy, respectively. A dose-dependent growth and migratory response to irradiation independent of the type of fractionation was observed. A coculture system in which tumour spheroids were confronted with foetal rat brain aggregates was used for invasion studies. Marked invasion of the glioma spheroids into the brain aggregates occurred with or without radiotherapy. For the GaMg cells, flow cytometric DNA histograms after treatment with 10 Gy and 40 Gy showed an accumulation of cells in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle. Radiotherapy inhibits tumour cell growth and migration, but the invasiveness of the remaining tumour cells seems to be unaffected.
