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

HMGB1 (high-mobility group box 1) protein, a pleiotropic cytokine released by several cell types under physiological and pathological conditions, has been identified as a signal molecule active on A431 cells. Although extracellular HMGB1 itself does not trigger any detectable signalling effect on these cells, it induces an increased susceptibility to EGF (epidermal growth factor) stimulation. Specifically, at concentrations of EGF which promote undetectable or limited cell responses, the addition of sub-nanomolar concentrations of HMGB1 potentiates the effect of EGF by specifically activating a downstream pathway that leads to enhanced cell motility through an increase in Ca2+ influx, activation of extracellular-signal-regulated kinase 1/2 and remodelling of the actin cytoskeleton. These results, which identify extracellular HMGB1 as an activator of human tumour cell migration operating in concert with EGF, have important implications in the search for novel strategies to control tumour progression and metastatic invasion.
