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

Neuroblastoma is a common solid malignant tumor of the sympathetic nervous system, which contributes to 15% of cancer‑related mortality in children. The differentiation status of neuroblastoma is correlated with clinical outcome, and the induction of differentiation thus constitutes a therapeutic approach in this disease. However, the molecular mechanisms that control the differentiation of neuroblastoma remain poorly understood. The present study aimed to define whether GATA3 is involved in the differentiation of neuroblastoma cells. The results demonstrated that GATA3 is a prognostic marker for survival in patients with neuroblastoma, and that high‑level GATA3 expression is associated with increased self‑renewal and proliferation of neuroblastoma cells. Retinoic acid treatment led to GATA3 downregulation together with neuronal differentiation, suppression of cell proliferation and inhibition of tumorigenecity in neuroblastoma cells. These findings suggest that GATA3 is a key regulator of neuroblastoma differentiation, and provide a novel potential therapeutic strategy for the induction of neuroblastoma differentiation.
