Expression of the PAX8/PPARγ Fusion Protein Is Associated with Decreased Neovascularization In Vivo: Impact on Tumorigenesis and Disease Prognosis.
Article in Genes & cancer, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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 PAX8/PPARγ fusion protein (PPFP) occurs in 36% of human follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) and is associated with favorable prognosis. To elucidate the function of PPFP in FTC, we analyzed the consequences of PPFP expression in immortalized thyrocytes in vitro and in vivo via xenograft tumorigenesis. While PPFP-expressing cells exhibited oncogenic hallmarks, including increased growth and decreased apoptosis, in vitro, xenograft tumors were initiated but not sustained in vivo. PPFP xenograft tumors exhibited reduced CD31 staining and VEGF expression, suggesting that PPFP modulates neovascularization. Microarray analysis demonstrated increased expression of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP-3), an inhibitor of angiogenesis, in PPFP cells and tumors, a finding confirmed by quantitative PCR and immunohistochemistry. Immunohistochemical staining of archival human thyroid tumors demonstrates a significant decrease in CD31 staining in all adenomas and carcinomas containing the PAX8/PPARγ rearrangement. Decreased angiogenesis in PPFP-containing tumors is directly correlated with our observations in the xenograft model and provides evidence for the first time that PPFP may impact FTC tumorigenesis by modulating angiogenesis in vivo.
