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

SSeCKS/Gravin/AKAP12 (SSeCKS) is a kinase scaffolding protein that encodes metastasis-suppressor activity through the suppression of Src-mediated oncogenic signaling and vascular endothelial growth factor expression. SSeCKS expression is down-regulated in Src- and Ras-transformed fibroblasts, in human cancer cell lines and in several types of human cancer, including prostate. Normal human and mouse prostates express abundant SSeCKS in secretory epithelial cells and, to a lesser extent, in the surrounding mesenchyme. Here, we show that the loss of SSeCKS results in prostatic hyperplasia in the anterior and ventral lobes as well as increased levels of apoptosis throughout the prostate. Dysplastic foci were observed less frequently but were associated with the loss of E-cadherin staining and the loss of high molecular weight cytokeratin-positive basal epithelial cells. SSeCKS-null prostate tissues expressed significantly higher relative levels of AKT(poS473) compared with wild-type controls, suggesting that SSeCKS attenuates phosphatidylinositol-3-OH kinase signaling. The data suggest that SSeCKS-null mice have increased susceptibility for oncogenic transformation in the prostate.
