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

Side populations of glioblastoma cells are resistant to chemotherapy basically due to ABCG2-mediated efflux of small-molecule drugs. The herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase/ganciclovir suicide gene therapy system is one of the best-characterized strategies for malignant tumors including glioblastoma. Since this system involves a small-molecule drug ganciclovir, we wonder if glioblastoma side population cells are able to "pump out" ganciclovir and thus resistant to this suicide gene therapy. By 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium assay, we found that side populations are more resistant to this system than non-side populations. By flow cytometry and competition assay, we found that ganciclovir is a substrate for ABCG2.
