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 rhadinovirus herpesvirus saimiri transforms human T lymphocytes to stable growth in culture. Besides the viral oncogenes stpC and tip, little is understood about the transformation process at the cellular level. To identify cellular factors that might contribute to growth transformation, we compared cellular gene expression in pairs of herpesvirus saimiri-transformed and nontransformed human T-cell clones. Using cDNA arrays and suppressive subtractive hybridization, we were able to identify the chemokine CCL1/I-309 as one of the few cellular genes that are strongly overexpressed in T cells after growth transformation with herpesvirus saimiri. The transformed T cells expressed CCR8, the receptor for CCL1, which rapidly induced intracellular calcium ion levels. Neutralizing antibodies to CCL1 led to reduced secretion of interferon-gamma and tumor necrosis factor-alpha as well as to reduced proliferation rates in transformed T cells. Thus, we propose that growth transformation of human T cells with herpesvirus saimiri gives rise to an autocrine loop where the proliferation of transformed T cells is supported by the endogenous production of the chemokine CCL1.
