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

v-src is an effective carcinogen when expressed from Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) in vivo. Whereas RSV tumors require sustained oncogene expression, their growth is largely a balance between viral recruitment of tissues and host immune destruction of infected cells. We have therefore examined the tumorigenic potential of v-src in the absence of viral recruitment and viral antigen expression. v-src was introduced with high efficiency into chicken wing web tissues using replication-defective (rd) retroviral vectors. Clonal sarcomas were induced rapidly, and, furthermore, v-src potentiated metastatic progression in approximately 0.1%-1% of tumor clones with unexpectedly short latency. rd vectors proved effective not only in transducing v-src into tissues but also as insertional markers of tumor clonality. The rd vector present in most primary and metastatic tumors was a highly truncated form of RSV derived by viral transmission of spliced v-src mRNA; this vector should thus avoid viral recruitment and host anti-viral immune reaction through its complete lack of viral structural genes. Under such conditions v-src maintains strong carcinogenicity in vivo when restricted to clonal tumor growth and can confer rapid metastatic potential on a discrete subset of tumor clones.
