Expression of the Chemokine Receptors CXCR3, CXCR4, CXCR7 and Their Ligands in Rhabdomyosarcoma.

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
Rhabdomyosarcomas (RMS) are soft tissue malignant tumors of childhood and adolescents. The mechanisms underlying their aggressiveness are still poorly understood. Chemokines are chemotactic proteins involved in pathological processes that have been intensely studied in several types of cancers because of their influence in migration, angiogenesis, or metastases. We analyzed the expression of the chemokine receptors CXCR3, CXCR4 and CXCR7 and their ligands CXCL9, CXCL10, CXCL11 and CXCL12, in 15 RMS samples derived from nine patients. Expression was measured in tumors and primary cultures of RMS by Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction, immunostaining and flow cytometry. Our results show that these receptors are widely expressed in RMS. A significant difference between CXCL12/CXCR4, CXCL12/CXCR7, CXCL11/CXCR7 expression ratios was found in alveolar versus embryonal RMS and similarly between CXCL12/CXCR4 and CXCL11/CXCR3 ratios in primary versus recurrent tumors. These findings suggest a possible association between the interrelation of chemokine/chemokine-receptor and an aggressive biological behavior in RMS.
