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

Our studies during the early 1970s showed that expression of GM3, the simplest ganglioside and an abundant animal cell membrane component, is reduced during malignant transformation of cells by oncogenic viruses. Levels of mRNA for GM3 synthase were reduced in avian and mammalian cells transformed by oncoprotein "v-Jun", and overexpression of GM3 synthase in the transformed cells caused reversion from transformed to normal cell-like phenotype. GM3 has a well-documented inhibitory effect on activation of growth factor receptors (GFRs), particularly epidermal GFR (EGFR). De-N-acetyl GM3, which is expressed in some invasive human cancer cells, has an enhancing effect on EGFR activation. The important role of the sialosyl group of GM3 was demonstrated using NEU3, a plasma membrane-associated sialidase that selectively remove sialic acids from gangliosides GM3 and GD1a and is up-regulated in many human cancer cells. GM3 is highly enriched in a type of membrane microdomain termed "glycosynapse", and forms complexes with co-localized cell signaling molecules, including Src family kinases, certain tetraspanins (e.g., CD9, CD81, CD82), integrins, and GFRs (e.g., fibroblast growth factor receptor and hepatocyte growth factor receptor c-Met). Studies by our group and others indicate that GM3 modulates cell adhesion, growth, and motility by altering molecular organization in glycosynaptic microdomains and the activation levels of co-localized signaling molecules that are involved in cancer pathogenesis.
