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

Recent reports indicate that inactivation of the RB, TP53 or PTEN tumour suppressor genes is detected in tumour stroma of oropharyngeal, breast and other human cancers. Mouse models have validated the tumour-promoting effects of deleting Rb, Pten or p53 in fibroblasts that converts them from normal fibroblasts to carcinoma associated fibroblasts (CAFs). The tumour-promoting activity of CAFs in these contexts was associated with increased paracrine signaling to tumour cells through production of specific growth factors, chemokines and MMPs by CAFs. The conversion of NOFs into CAFs through acquisition of specific mutations, such as loss of tumour suppressors, or deregulated expression of microRNAs or key epigenetic events, can clearly occur independently of genetic and epigenetic changes in tumour cells but an alternative source of CAFs that is being reconsidered is that CAFs derive from the tumour cells by EMT. Recent mouse models employing lineage-tracing techniques have suggested that this can take place in vivo and the extent to which this is relevant more broadly is discussed.
