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

Identification of gene expression signatures associated with metastases provides a tool to discern mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets and may lead toward a molecular classification system in pathology. Prostate cancer (CaP) frequently metastasizes to the bone to form osteoblastic lesions. Correlative clinical data and in vitro evidence have led to the hypothesis that osteoblast-derived factors promote hormonal progression of CaP cells. Here, the gene expression signature of CaP exposed to osteoblast-derived factors was identified. This signature included known androgen-regulated genes, oncogenes, tumor suppressors, and genes whose products are involved in apoptosis and cell cycle. A comparative functional genomic approach involved the application of this responsive gene expression signature to clinical samples of human CaP, melanomas, and oral cancers. Cluster analysis revealed that this gene expression signature had specificity for CaP and could resolve clinical specimens according to stage (benign, localized, and metastatic) and androgen sensitivity with an accuracy of 100% and 80%, respectively. Together, these results suggest that factors derived from osteoblasts induce a more advanced phenotype of CaP and promotes hormonal progression.
