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

Cyclin D2, P53, Rb and ATM as cell cycle genes regulate cell growth and proliferation. Considering their roles, we assumed that they have different level of mRNA expression in different grades of brain tumors. To determine this point, we investigated the mRNA expression in two types of brain tumors, including astrocytoma and meningioma. The mRNA of 52 brain tumor samples were extracted; cyclin D2, P53, Rb and ATM mRNA expression was quantified using the real-time quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. We compared mRNA expression of these genes between astrocytoma and meningioma tumors and also between different grades of them. Cyclin D2, P53, Rb and ATM had higher expression in astrocytoma than meningioma tumors. Higher grade (III and IV) of astrocytoma tumors had up-regulation for cyclin D2 and ATM genes, but higher grades of these tumors showed down-regulation of P53 and Rb genes. Analysis of relative expression between two grades of meningioma tumors showed a high down-regulation in grade II related to grade I. Also, cyclin D2, P53, Rb and ATM mRNA expression in each group of tumors (meningioma and astrocytoma) showed a highly positive correlation in lower grades. Considering this fact and also different templates of up- and down-regulation for these genes' interaction in different types of brain tumors, it seems that these genes do not have a unique model of interaction.
