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

DLK1 (delta-like) is a transmembrane and secreted protein in the epidermal growth factor-like homeotic family. Although expressed widely during embryonic development, only a few tissues retain the expression in adults. Neuroendocrine tumors often highly express this protein; therefore, we hypothesized that brain tumors might also express it. This study found that the expression of DLK1 in gliomas was higher than that in normal brain (P < 0.05). After stable transfection of a DLK1 cDNA expression vector into GBM cell lines, their proliferation was increased. Furthermore, they lost contact inhibition, had enhanced anchorage-independent growth in soft agar, and had significantly greater capacity to migrate. Western blot studies showed that expression of cyclin D1, CDK2, and E2F4 were increased, and Rb levels were decreased in these cells. DLK1 was found on the cell surface and secreted in the medium from the transfected GBM cells. DLK1-enriched condition medium stimulated the growth of glioblastoma multiforme cell lines and explants. DLK1 antibody blocked cell growth stimulated by DLK1. In summary, these results suggest that DLK1 may play a role in the formation or progression of gliomas.
