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

Retroviral transformation has been associated with pro-proliferative oncogenic signaling in human cells. The current study demonstrates that transduction of human breast carcinoma cells (MDA-MB231) with LXSN and QCXIP retroviral vectors causes significant increases in growth rate, clonogenic fraction, and aldehyde dehydrogenase-1 positive cells (ALDH1+), which is associated with increased steady-state levels of cancer stem cell populations. Furthermore, this retroviral-induced enhancement of cancer cell growth in vitro was also accompanied by a significant increase in xenograft tumor growth rate in vivo. The retroviral induced increases in cancer cell growth rate were partially inhibited by treatment with 100 U/ml polyethylene glycol-conjugated-(PEG)-superoxide dismutase and/or PEG-catalase. These results show that retroviral infection of MDA-MB231 human breast cancer cells is capable of enhancing cell proliferation and cancer stem cell populations as well as suggesting that modulation of reactive oxygen species-induced pro-survival signaling pathways may be involved in these effects.
