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

purposeThis investigation is intended to obtain differentially expressed genes related to human malignant glioma using Subtractive hybridization. MATERIALS AND

methodsSubtractive hybridization is potentially faster methods for identifying differentially expressed genes associated with a particular disease state. We identified 7 over-expressed genes which were not homologous to any of the known genes in the Genbank database.

resultsUsing semi-quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), the mRNA expression levels of these 7 genes were higher in human glioblastomas tissue than in non-tumor brain tissue. In order to learn more about the expression profile of these genes, RT-PCR was performed using various commercially available human carcinoma cell lines. Some of these new genes were over-expressed in human glioma cell line, but not the expressed in other human cancer cell line.

conclusionTheses cloned new genes may play a role in brain tumorigenesis. Further studies including verification of oncogene, cancer protein, and glioblastoma induction in animal model are needed.
