Differential cytokine pattern in the exhaled breath of patients with lung cancer.
Article in Pathology oncology research : POR, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
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
Tumour cells may alter the protein pattern of biological samples resulting in specific differences that may aid diagnosis and treatment. In this pilot study we tested the cytokine pattern of exhaled breath condensate of patients with lung cancer. Breath condensates collected from 50 smoking patients with lung cancer and 25 smokers without clinical or radiological sign of a pulmonary tumour but having co-morbidities with similar severity as those with lung cancer were pooled for antibody microarray analysis testing 120 cytokines in parallel. Every cytokine on the array gave a signal in both groups. Nine cytokines including eotaxin, FGFs, IL-10 and MIP-3 were present with more than two-fold difference between the two groups. Large number of cytokines is present in the exhaled breath. Further analysis of specific differences associated with lung cancer may have clinical importance.
