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

Accumulating evidence suggests that TAMs contribute to tumor progression. Recently, vasohibin-1 and vasohibin-2 were detected in endothelial cells and considered as intrinsic angiogenesis inhibitors. However, it is not known whether they are also expressed in cancer cells or tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs). Realtime RT-PCR was used to investigate the vasohibin-1 and vasohibin-2 expression in four gastric cancer cell lines, including a non-metastatic cell line AGS, and metastatic cell lines HGC-27, Hs-746T and NCI-N87, co-cultured with or without TAMs. The effect of hypoxic conditions on vasohibin expression was evaluated as well, and the correlation between vasohibin-1, vasohibin-2 and VEGF-A expression under different culture conditions was analyzed. We found that both vasohibin-1 and vasohibin-2 were expressed in the four gastric cancer cell lines and in TAMs. Under normal conditions, vasohibin-1 and vasohibin-2 expressions were significantly upregulated by TAMs in all the gastric cancer cell lines. Under hypoxia, both vasohibin-1 and vasohibin-2 expressions were significantly decreased in the distant metastasis cancer cell line Hs-746T, cultured with or without TAMs (P<0.001). After induction by TAMs or hypoxia, the vasohibin-1 and vasohibin-2 expressions correlated with that of VEGF-A. In addition, TAMs, when co-cultured with the metastatic cancer cell lines, showed hypoxia-induced vasohibin-1 upregulation (P<0.05). In conclusion, both vasohibin-1 and vasohibin-2 mRNA are expressed in gastric cancer cells and in TAMs, and their expressions are altered by hypoxia.
