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

A recent body of evidence indicates an active role for stromal (mis)-regulation in the progression of neoplasias. Within this conceptual framework, genes belonging to the growing but still poorly characterized class of tumor antagonizing/malignancy suppressor genes (TAG/MSG) seem to play a crucial role in the regulation of the cross-talk between stromal and epithelial cells by controlling malignant growth in vivo without affecting any cancer-related phenotype in vitro. Here, we have functionally characterized the human RNASET2 gene, which encodes the first human member of the widespread Rh/T2/S family of extracellular RNases and was recently found to be down-regulated at the transcript level in several primary ovarian tumors or cell lines and in melanoma cell lines. Although we could not detect any activity for RNASET2 in several functional in vitro assays, a remarkable control of ovarian tumorigenesis could be detected in vivo. Moreover, the control of ovarian tumorigenesis mediated by this unique tumor suppressor gene occurs through modification of the cellular microenvironment and the induction of immunocompetent cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage. Taken together, the data presented in this work strongly indicate RNASET2 as a previously unexplored member of the growing family of tumor-antagonizing genes.
