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

Immortalized, interleukin-3 (IL-3)-dependent mouse mast cells (PB-3c) were transfected with a human activated c-H-ras gene under the transcriptional control of the mouse mammary tumor virus long terminal repeat. Addition of increasing amounts of dexamethasone resulted in a concentration-dependent increase in expression of the H-ras oncogene. The elevation of p21 ras protein concentrations was paralleled by progressive growth of the transfectants in the absence of exogenous IL-3, leading to complete abrogation of growth-factor requirement at high p21ras levels. The maintenance of the IL-3-independent state required the continuous expression of the H-ras oncogene, since dexamethasone removal was followed by rapid cell death. Expression of the H-ras oncogene induced PB-3c cells to produce IL-3 and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, suggesting that their IL-3-independent proliferation may be due to an autocrine mechanism.
