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

Most human gliomas are characterized by diffuse infiltrative growth in the brain parenchyma. Partly because of this characteristic growth pattern, gliomas are notorious for their poor response to current therapies. Many animal models for human gliomas, however, do not display this diffuse infiltrative growth pattern. Furthermore, there is a need for glioma models that represent adequate genocopies of different subsets of human gliomas (e.g., oligodendrogliomas). Here, we assessed the intracerebral growth patterns and copy number changes [using multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA)/comparative genomic hybridization (CGH)] of 15 human glioma lines in nude mice. Most xenografts present with compact growing lesions intracerebrally. Only the E98 and, to a lesser degree, E106 xenograft lines (propagated through subcutaneous growth) consistently produced intracerebral tumors, displaying diffuse infiltrative growth in the brain parenchyma. In contrast, four xenograft lines (E434, E468, E473 and E478), established by direct intracerebral inoculation of human glioma cells and serially propagated intracerebrally, consistently showed extensive diffuse infiltration throughout the brain. After several passages, the neoplastic cells still carry typical chromosomal aberrations [(-1p/-19q in oligodendroglioma, +7/-10 in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM)]. Especially these latter four models and the E98 line thus represent adequate geno- and phenocopies of human gliomas and form an attractive platform to investigate different therapeutic approaches in a preclinical setting.
