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

The nature of the relationship between agonist-stimulated cyclic AMP production and metastatic potential was examined in detail for four B16 melanoma cell lines of varying metastatic potential. Highly metastatic cells (B16 F10C1) appeared to differ from cells of low metastatic potential (B16 F1C29) in the degree to which cyclic AMP production in intact cells was stimulated by protein kinase C activation. No significant difference was found in the adenylate-cyclase enzyme activities of the broken cells, irrespective of the agonist used, or in the distribution of cyclic AMP between the intracellular and extracellular compartment. Although B16F1, F10 and F10C1 cells all produced equally pigmented tumors in vivo, the cells differed in their melanogenic response to cyclic AMP elevating agents in vitro: the least metastatic cells produced least agonist-induced cyclic AMP but this induced greatest tyrosinase activation and melanin production in vitro; conversely, the more metastatic cells produced more cyclic AMP but less tyrosinase activation and melanin production in response to agonist stimulation. Thus, agonist-stimulated cyclic AMP production does not appear to be coupled to the differentiated function of melanogenesis for highly metastatic B16 melanoma cells.
