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

This study was conducted to evaluate the role of tumor suppressor gene ras homologue member I (ARHI) in human glioma tumors. We examined expression of ARHI in human glioma tumors and normal brain tissue and also in 4 different glioma cell lines. Furthermore, the effects of ARHI over-expression produced by cellular transfection on the growth of human glioma U251 cells cultured in vitro were also studied. Expression of ARHI was evaluated in samples of glioma tumors obtained from 59 patients who underwent surgery at the Department of Neurosurgery, Fujian Medical University Union Hospital, Fuzhou, China. Ten samples of normal brain tissue were used as controls. Additionally, in vitro studies were conducted in which a recombinant vector carrying ARHI cDNA was constructed and transfected into U251 glioma cells with reduced expression of ARHI. Following transfection, the MTT assay, flow cytometry, TUNEL procedure, Transwell assay, and wound-healing test were employed to evaluate the biological functions of ARHI in U251 glioma cells in vitro. Analyses of mRNA and protein expression revealed that ARHI was significantly down-regulated in glioma tissues as well as in 4 malignant glioma cell lines. Over-expression of ARHI resulted in suppression of glioma cell proliferation, arrest of cell cycle progression, reduction in cell migration and invasion, and promotion of cell apoptosis. Collectively, our data highlight the importance of ARHI in glioma progression and provide the first biological basis for ARHI as a novel candidate target for gene therapy of glioma.
