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 relationship exists between defects in bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling and formation of hamartoma and adenoma in the gastric epithelium; however, the role of BMP signaling in the progression of diffuse-type gastric carcinoma remains unknown. We investigated whether BMP functions as a tumor suppressor in human diffuse-type gastric carcinoma using three different human diffuse-type gastric carcinoma cell lines (OCUM-12, HSC-39, and OCUM-2MLN). Overexpression of the dominant-negative form of BMP-2/4-specific type I receptor (ALK-3) in OCUM-12 and HSC-39 cells accelerated their growth in vivo. BMP-4 induced cell cycle arrest in these cells via p21 induction through the SMAD pathway. Moreover, overexpression of the constitutively active form of ALK-3 in HSC-39 and OCUM-2MLN cells suppressed the proliferation of these cells in vitro and in vivo. Our findings suggest that BMP-2 and BMP-4 function as potent tumor suppressors in diffuse-type gastric carcinoma.
