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

To expand the available tools for investigating human sarcomas, we characterized the primary properties of 22 common, uncommon, and newly characterized sarcoma cell lines representing eight different histological subtypes. Throughout the characterization process we noticed that in vitro markers and assays are poor indicators of tumorigenicity and that generated xenografts often bear little resemblance to the original histopathology. In vitro properties examined included morphology, proliferation rate, cell cycle characteristics, invasiveness, and immunohistochemical expression of p53 and phospho-AKT. In vivo properties examined included days to tumor formation in NOD/SCID mice, xenograft morphology in several locations and immunohistochemical expression of Ki67, p53 and phospho-AKT. We believe that such an in depth comparison of a large cohort of sarcoma cell lines will be useful in both designing and interpreting experiments aimed at elucidating both the molecular biology and efficacy of therapeutic agents in sarcomas. However, that data generated also suggests a small set of sarcoma cell lines may be inappropriate for generalizations regarding biological behavior of specific sarcoma subtypes. Integration of functional genomics or other more sophisticated assays of cell lines may help bridge the differences in vitro and in vivo.
