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 purpose of this study was to examine the expression and functional significance of the growth-regulated oncogene (gro) family in human colon carcinoma growth and metastasis. We examined constitutive expression of CXCL1 (gro-alpha), CXCL2 (gro-beta), CXCL3 (gro-gamma) and their receptor, CXCR2 in human colon carcinoma cells with different metastatic potentials. Non-metastatic and low metastatic cells expressed lower levels of CXCL1 and CXCR2 mRNA and protein as compared to high metastatic colon carcinoma cells. No difference in CXCL2 and CXCL3 mRNA expression levels was observed. Colon carcinoma cells expressing higher levels of CXCL1 exhibit increased proliferation and invasive potential. Furthermore, exogenous addition of recombinant human CXCL1 significantly enhanced the proliferation and invasiveness of colon carcinoma cells. Furthermore, treatment of KM12C cells with exogenous CXCL1 enhanced their invasiveness. Neutralizing antibody to CXCL1 in combination with antibody to CXCR2 inhibited highly metastatic KM12L4 (high CXCL1 expressor) cell proliferation. These data demonstrate that the constitutive expression of CXCL1 and its receptor CXCR2 is associated with metastatic potential and modulates colon cancer cell proliferation and an invasive phenotype.
