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

Lactogenic hormone-dependent Nb2-11C cells proliferate in response to prolactin (PRL) or human growth hormone (hGH). We have investigated the activation of p21( ras ) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP-kinase) by hGH in lactogen-dependent Nb2-11C and in autonomous hormone-independent Nb2-SP rat lymphoma cells. Exposure of Nb2-11C cells to hGH resulted in a dose-dependent activation of p21( ras ) and of MAP-kinase. Activation occurs at physiological hGH concentration and with a rapid onset (∼1 min) reaching maximal level at 10-20 min. In contrast, in Nb2-SP autonomous lactogen-independent cells, p21( ras ) and MAP-kinase are constitutively activated and a challenge with lactogenic hormone had a modest additional activating effect. TPA, an activator of protein kinase C, enhanced p21( ras ) and MAP-kinase activity in Nb2-11C cells but failed to induce proliferation. The mechanism of activation of p21( ras ) in Nb2-11C cells by lactogenic hormones involves both an increased binding of guanine nucleotides to p21( ras ) as well as an increase in GTP/GDP+GTP ratio. In summary, we have demonstrated here that activation of the p21( ras )/MAP-kinase pathway follows PRL receptor activation but is not sufficient for the lactogenic hormone-dependent mitogenesis.
