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

It is reported that adult multipotent stem cells can undergo spontaneous transformation after long-term in vitro culture. Understanding the molecular mechanisms involved in this spontaneous transformation process can help in the design of future therapeutic applications. By far, the transformation process of adult multipotent stem cell is not well understood. In this study, a tumorigenic cell line nominated TDMC1 was established from a clonal population of rat dermis-derived multipotent cells (DMCs) following spontaneous transformation in culture. The transformed cells could produce tumors with characteristics of fibrous histocytoma when they are inoculated subcutaneously into nude mice. The molecular profiles of the nontransformed DMCs and transformed cells were analyzed by a deoxyribonucleic acid microarray. Our results showed that the overactivation of the K-ras/mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase signaling pathway played an important role in the transformation process. These data may be helpful to explain, at least in part, the possible mechanism for the malignant transformation of adult multipotent cells.
