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

Rb+/- mice develop a complex spectrum of neuroendocrine tumors on a mixed genetic (129Sv x C57BL/6) background. To understand how the 129Sv and C57BL/6 contributions affect Rb+/- tumorigenesis, we serially backcrossed Rb+/- animals to the 129Sv or C57BL/6 strain, and analysed their pathological profiles. Strikingly, the length of survival and the penetrance, severity and multiplicity of neuroendocrine tumors switch dramatically between Rb+/- animals from the two genetic backgrounds. In fact, the 129Sv background significantly enhances both the initiation and progression of tumorigenesis in the intermediate lobe of the pituitary (ILP) in Rb+/- animals. This is due to the surprising fact that ILPs from wild-type 129Sv animals are inherently abnormal, and thus greatly predisposed to neoplasia. This is likely to explain the high incidence of ILP tumors, an otherwise rare tumor type in wild-type mice, in numerous knockout studies performed on the 129Sv strain, and raises the intriguing possibility that the classic Rb+/- neuroendocrine tumors may fade away in another as of yet unidentified inbred strain. Finally, we have increased the utility of the Rb+/- tumor model, since Rb+/- animals on the C57BL/6 background develop high-penetrance tumors of the anterior lobe of the pituitary, a class of tumors estimated to occur in 20-25% of humans.
