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 Testin (TES) gene was previously identified as a putative human tumor suppressor gene at 7q31.2, a region that is frequently deleted in hematopoietic malignancies, as well as in epithelial tumors. To determine whether TES acts as a tumor suppressor in vivo, we generated a Tes knockout mouse and then used it in an established model of carcinogen-induced gastric cancer. In mice a zinc-deficient (ZD) diet enhances cellular proliferation in the forestomach and susceptibility to N-nitrosomethylbenzylamine (NMBA)-induced carcinogenesis. Five-week-old Tes wild-type (+/+), heterozygous (+/-), and homozygous (-/-) mice were divided into four groups: mice fed a zinc-sufficient diet (ZS); mice fed a ZD diet; ZS fed plus NMBA-treated mice (ZS+NMBA), and ZD fed plus NMBA-treated mice (ZD+NMBA). After 4 weeks, the ZS+NMBA and ZD+NMBA groups were treated with three intragastric doses of NMBA. Animals were killed 8 weeks after NMBA administration: 25% of +/+ mice developed benign lesions; 88% of +/- showed multiple papillomas, atypical glandular metaplasia, and squamous cell carcinomasl; and 81% of -/- mice displayed very large papillomas, squamous cell carcinomas, and adenocarcinomas. A statistically significant difference in tumor incidence was found between +/- versus +/+ and -/- versus +/+ (P < 0.0001). These data suggest that Tes functions as a tumor suppressor gene in vivo.
