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

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), a C19 adrenal steroid hormone, induces peroxisome proliferation in liver cells and is hepatocarcinogenic in the rat. The present study deals with the phenotypic properties of DHEA-induced liver lesions. A majority of the altered areas (80-87%), neoplastic nodules (> 94%) and hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC, 80-100%) lacked the marker enzymes gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase and placental form of glutathione S-transferase (GSTP). Northern blot analysis of HCC from 4 rats revealed no detectable GSTP mRNA. These HCC, however, showed a marked decrease in the staining of glucose-6-phosphatase and adenosine triphosphatase. These results indicate that the phenotypic properties of liver tumors induced by DHEA and amphipathic carboxylate peroxisome proliferators are similar.
