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

The H19 locus belongs to a cluster of imprinted genes that is linked to the human Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome. The expression of H19 and its closely associated IGF2 gene is frequently deregulated in some human tumors, such as Wilms' tumors. In these cases, biallelic IGF2 expression and lack of expression of H19 are associated with hypermethylation of the imprinting center of this locus. These observations and others have suggested a potential tumor suppressor effect of the H19 locus. Some studies have also suggested that H19 is an oncogene, based on tissue culture systems. We show, using in vivo murine models of tumorigenesis, that the H19 locus controls the size of experimental teratocarcinomas, the number of polyps in the Apc murine model of colorectal cancer and the timing of appearance of SV40-induced hepatocarcinomas. The H19 locus thus clearly displays a tumor suppressor effect in mice.
