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 expression of cell adhesion molecule L1 has been identified in a vast spectrum of tumors; however, its expression pattern with regard to tumor type is rarely discussed. In the present study, we studied L1 levels in human glioblastomas and neuroblastomas, and compared the expression and secretion of L1 in human glioblastoma U87-MG and neuroblastoma SK-N-SH cells. Immunofluorescence staining revealed different grades of L1 staining in human glioblastoma and neuroblastoma samples. In U87-MG cells, full-length L1 was weakly detected in cell lysates (CLs), while greater levels of abundant soluble L1 were confined in conditioned culture medium (CCM). In contrast, higher levels of full-length L1 were confined in SK-N-SH CLs, while almost no soluble forms of L1 were detected in CCM. Our data indicates various expression patterns of L1 in U87-MG and SK-N-SH cells, which may underlie the different malignancies of the two neural tumor types and further stress the importance of soluble L1-mediated signaling pathways in cell malignancy.
