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

Carcinoids of the intestine are the most common gastrointestinal carcinoid tumors. Therapeutic options to treat patients with these tumors are limited. There are very few ileal carcinoid cell lines available for in vitro studies to analyze new drugs that could be effective in treating patients with metastatic tumors. A replication defective recombinant adenovirus with an SV40 early T-antigen insert was used to infect two intestinal carcinoid tumors to create carcinoid cell lines. The cell lines were studied by cell culture, reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, Western blotting, and immunohistochemistry. Both cell lines expressed SV40 large T antigen and receptors for TGFbeta1, TGFbeta2, EGFR, and somatostatin receptors. Treatment with TGFbeta1 led to growth inhibition and increased apoptosis in the cultured cells. Octreotide inhibited cell growth of both cell lines while stimulating apoptosis. Treatment of the HC45 cells with gefitinib also inhibited cell growth in a concentration-dependent manner. TGFbeta treatment stimulated chromogranin A expression while expression of two other granins, chromogranin B and 7B2, did not change significantly. RNA profiling of cells treated with TGFbeta1 showed increased expression of vitamin D3 receptor. This finding was validated by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction, Western blotting, and immunohistochemistry. These results indicate that these carcinoid cell lines can be used to study the proliferative and apoptotic mechanisms involved in intestinal carcinoid tumor growth regulation.
