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.
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
introductionLM38 murine mammary adenocarcinoma model is formed by LM38-LP (myoepithelial and luminal), LM38-HP (luminal) and LM38-D2 (myoepithelial) cell lines. In a previous work, we had shown that LM38-HP and LM38-D2 cell lines are less malignant than the bicellular LM38-LP cell line. PURPOSE: To study the role of nitric oxide (NO) as one of the mediators of functional interactions between malignant luminal and myoepithelial cells. METHODS AND
resultsUsing immunohistochemistry, in vivo iNOS expression was only detected in the luminal cells of bicellular LM38-LP and most cells of LM38-HP tumors. In cobalt-induced pseudohypoxia, LM38-LP and LM38-HP cell lines significantly increased HIF-1α and iNOS expression (Western blotting) and therefore NO production (Griess method). This increase was inhibited by the iNOS inhibitor 1400 W. On the other side, NO was not detectable in LM38-D2 cells either in basal or in pseudohypoxia. In addition, pseudohypoxia increased urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) secretion by LM38-LP and LM38-HP cells and migration in the LM38-LP cell line, without modulating these properties in LM38-D2 cells (radial caseinolysis). The NO donor DETA/NONOate (500 μM) was able to increase uPA secretion and in vitro growth of LM38-D2. In agreement, 1400 W prevented in vivo growth of the myoepithelial LM38-D2 cells.
conclusionsHypoxia leads to an enhanced NO production by the luminal component, through HIF-1α and iNOS, which can stimulate myoepithelial cell proliferation and uPA secretion. In these new conditions, myoepithelial cells might act as an invasive forefront generating gaps that could help luminal cells to escape from the primary tumor.
