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

The most prominent cellular changes in heat-shock response are induction of HSPs synthesis and reorganisation of cytoskeleton. Vincristine was used as a tool to evaluate the integrity of microtubules in 9L rat brain tumour cells recovering from heat-shock treatment. Cells treated at 45 degrees C for 15 min and recovered under normal growing condition became resistant to vincristine-inflicted cytotoxicity and microtubule destruction. Among all HSPs, the level of HSP70 and the degree of vincristine resistance are best correlated. HSP70 and tubulin were found to be associated with each other as they were co-immunoprecipitated by either anti-HSP70 or anti-beta-tubulin monoclonal antibody. The current studies establish for the first time that HSP70 can complex with tubulin in cells and this association may stabilise the organisation of microtubules thus protect the heat-treated cells from vincristine damage. These findings are noteworthy in combining hyperthermia and chemotherapy in the management of malignant diseases.
