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 proteomic-based approach was used to search for potential markers in the plasma of hamsters in which cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) was induced by Opisthorchis viverrini infection and N-nitrosodimethylamine treatment. The plasma proteins of CCA-induced hamsters were resolved by 1-D PAGE, digested by trypsin, and analyzed by LC-MS/MS. From the criteria of protein ID scores >15 and an overexpression of at least three times across all time points, 37 proteins were selected. These overexpressed proteins largely consisted of signal transduction, structural, transport, and transcriptional proteins in the order. Among the most frequently upregulated proteins, exostosin 1 (EXT1) was selected for further validation. By western blot analysis, the EXT1 expression level in the plasma of hamster CCA was significantly higher than that of controls at 1 month and thereafter. Immunohistochemistry revealed that EXT1 was expressed at vascular walls and fibroblasts at 21 days (before tumor onset) and at 2 months (early CCA) posttreatment. Its expression was also observed in bile duct cancer cells during tumor progression at 6 months posttreatment. In the human CCA tissue microarray, EXT1 immunoreactivity was found not only in vascular walls and fibroblasts but also in bile duct cancer cells and was positive in 89.7 % (61/68) of the cases. By ELISA and immunoblotting, plasma EXT1 level was significantly higher in human CCA compared to healthy controls. In conclusion, these results suggest that increased expression of EXT1 level in the plasma might be involved in CCA genesis and might be a potential biomarker of CCA.
