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

Using a mouse predisposed to neoplasia by a germ line mutation in Apc (Apc(Min)), we tested whether induced hyperplasia is sufficient to increase intestinal tumor multiplicity or size in the intestine. We found that hyperplasia in the jejunum correlated with a significant increase in tumor multiplicity. However, tumor multiplicity was unchanged in the hyperplastic colon. This result indicates that even an intestine predisposed to neoplasia can, in certain regions including the colon, accommodate net increased cell growth without developing more neoplasms. Where hyperplasia correlated with increased tumor multiplicity, it did not increase the size or net growth of established tumors. This result suggests that the event linking hyperplasia and neoplasia in the jejunum is tumor establishment. Two novel observations arose in our study: the multiple intestinal neoplasia (Min) mutation partially suppressed both mitosis and transforming growth factor alpha-induced hyperplasia throughout the intestine; and zinc treatment alone increased tumor multiplicity in the duodenum of Min mice.
