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

We have previously reported the presence of Dlxin-1, a member of the melanoma antigen gene (MAGE) family, in the brain and showed its function as a cell cycle arrest protein, suggesting that Dlxin-1 may have anti-proliferative functions in rapidly growing tumors. Using the cancer stem cell hypothesis, which attributes the initiation and progression of brain tumors to the cancer-initiating stem cells, we have investigated the role of Dlxin-1 in the glioma stem cells propagated by us as a cell culture system comprising of HNGC-2 cells. Our studies provide evidence about the role of Dlxin-1 as an anti-tumorigenic protein in the highly chemo-resistant glioma stem cells. Next, we show that these anti-proliferative effects are manifested by Dlxin-1 through down regulation of the activities of MMP-2 and MMP-9, and through interaction of Dlxin-1 with its target protein P311 that is involved in glioma cell invasion. In summary, we establish the roles for Dlxin-1, one as an anti-tumorigenic and anti-invasive protein in high-grade gliomas and the other as an inducer of differentiation of glioma stem cells. These two attributes, in conjunction, result in conversion of the drug-resistant brain tumor stem cells to the tumor-attenuated cells that may now be more amenable to effective therapeutic targeting.
