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

Ovine pulmonary adenocarcinoma (OPA) is a naturally occurring lung cancer of sheep caused by Jaagsiekte sheep retrovirus (JSRV). The JSRV envelope glycoprotein (Env) functions as a dominant oncoprotein in vitro and in vivo. In order to develop the basis for the use of OPA as a lung cancer model, we screened a variety of signal transduction inhibitors for their ability to block transformation by the JSRV Env. Most inhibitors were not effective in blocking JSRV Env-induced transformation. On the contrary, various Hsp90 inhibitors efficiently blocked JSRV transformation. This phenomenon was at least partly due to Akt degradation, which is activated in JSRV-transformed cells. Hsp90 was found expressed in tumor cells of sheep with naturally occurring OPA. In addition, Hsp90 inhibitors specifically inhibited proliferation of immortalized and moreover primary cells derived from OPA tumors. Thus, OPA could be used as a large animal model for comprehensive studies investigating the effects of Hsp90 inhibitors in lung adenocarcinoma.
