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 proto-oncogene c-myb, whose expression is usually limited to cells of the hematopoietic lineages, can be expressed in fibroblasts if placed under the control of a constitutive promoter, such as the simian virus SV40 early promoter. 3T3 cells carrying a constitutively expressed human c-myb were found to grow in 1% serum or in a serum-free, platelet-derived growth factor-supplemented medium, whereas the parent cell line, BALB/c 3T3, needed insulinlike growth factor 1 (IGF-1) in addition to platelet-derived growth factor for growth. myb-carrying cells, however, could not grow in platelet-poor plasma. In fibroblasts, therefore, a constitutively expressed c-myb can abrogate the requirement for platelet-poor plasma or IGF-1. When 3T3 cells constitutively expressed both c-myc and c-myb, they could grow in serum-free medium without added growth factors. The ability of c-myb to abrogate in fibroblasts the IGF-1 requirement seems to be due to its ability to induce overexpression of IGF-1, as indicated by an increase in steady-state levels of IGF-1 mRNA. These results have some important implications; for instance, they suggest a commonality of pathways for entry into S phase in different cell types and the possibility of a myb-like or myb-equivalent gene product of critical importance for entry of fibroblasts into S phase.
