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

Medulloblastoma is the most common brain tumor of childhood. Emerging molecular targets in medulloblastoma include neurotrophin and neuropeptide receptors. In the present study, we have examined the influence of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)/TrkB receptor- and gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPR)-mediated signaling on the viability of human medulloblastoma cells. The expression of TrkB and GRPR was confirmed by immunohistochemistry and mRNA for both BDNF and GRPR was detected by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction in Daoy, D283, and ONS76 cells. Treatment with BDNF significantly inhibited the viability of Daoy and D283, but not ONS76 cells, measured with the MTT assay. Neither the GRPR agonists GRP and bombesin nor the GRPR antagonist RC-3095 affected cell viability. Because previous findings have indicated that the viability of glioma cells might be enhanced by GRP when combined with the cAMP phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) inhibitor rolipram, we also examined the effects of rolipram alone or combined with GRP on cell viability. Rolipram significantly reduced the viability of all three cell lines, and the inhibitory effect of rolipram in Daoy cells was not modified by cotreatment with GRP. The results suggest that BDNF/TrkB and PDE4, but not the GRPR, regulate the viability of medulloblastoma cells.
