UVC irradiation suppresses platelet-derived growth factor-BB-induced migration in human pancreatic cancer cells.
Article in Oncology reports, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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 recently reported that short wavelength ultraviolet-C (UVC) irradiation inhibits cell growth and induces apoptosis in human pancreatic cancer cells. In this study, we investigated the effect of UVC on platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB-induced migration in pancreatic cancer cells, AsPC1 and BxPC3. In cell migration assays using a Boyden chamber Transwell, PDGF-BB exerted a maximum effect on migration of these cells at a dose of 70 ng/ml after 36 h of treatment. PDGF-BB also caused phosphorylation of p44/p42 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), stress-activated protein kinase/c-Jun-N-terminal kinase (SAPK/JNK) and Akt, but not of p38 MAPK in these cells. Pretreatment of these cells with UVC at a dose over 10 J markedly suppressed PDGF-BB-induced migration. Since UVC significantly inhibited PDGF-BB-induced phosphorylation of Akt, and subsequent glycogen synthase kinase (GSK) 3β, but not p44/p42 MAPK and SAPK/JNK, it is likely that UVC inhibits PDGF-BB-induced migration by suppressing the Akt-GSK3β pathway in pancreatic cancer cells. Taken together with our previous findings, UVC could be a useful tool for the treatment of patients with pancreatic cancer.
