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

An ascitic lymphosarcoma (LS-A) of Swiss mice that regressed spontaneously on subcutaneous (s.c.) transplantation was investigated for the mechanism of its progressive growth and host mortality on intraperitoneal (i.p.) transplantation. In vitro studies indicated significant inhibition of LS-A proliferation seeded at higher cell density (>10(4)/ml). Culture supernatants of LS-A caused bi-modal growth effects, the early supernatants (24 h) caused stimulation and the late (72 h) supernatants inhibited LS-A proliferation. The 72-h supernatants also suppressed T and B cell response to mitogens in a dose-dependent manner. Pan anti-transforming growth factor-beta antibody abrogated the inhibitory effects of supernatants. The supernatants contained both latent as well as bio-active form of transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) as determined by ELISA. Mice bearing i.p. ascites tumor had elevated serum TGF-beta1, hemoglobulinemia, splenic lymphopenia, impaired response of the T cells to mitogen and reduced expression of transferrin receptor (CD71) on the bone marrow cells. However, mice which rejected s.c. transplants, did not show significant changes in these parameters. Our studies indicated profound influence of site of tumor growth on tumor progression and host immune system mediated by tumor-derived TGF-beta1. It is possible that human tumors which secrete TGF-beta1 may exhibit similar patho-physiological effects in the host depending on the anatomical site of the tumor.
