ErbB3 upregulation by the HNSCC 3D microenvironment modulates cell survival and growth.
Article in Oncogene, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers.
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
Head and neck squamous carcinomas (HNSCC) present as dense epithelioid three-dimensional (3D) tumor nests that can mediate signals via the human epidermal growth factor receptor (ErbB) tyrosine kinase family to promote intratumoral survival and growth. We examined the role of the tumor microenvironment on ErbB receptor family expression and found that the status of intercellular organization altered the receptor profile. We showed that HNSCC cells forced into tumor island-like 3D aggregates strongly upregulated ErbB3 at the level of transcription. Not only was the elevated ErbB3 responsive to HRG-β1-induced enhanced signaling mechanism, but also analysis by siRNA-knockdown and kinase inhibitor strategies revealed that the ErbB3/AKT signaling pathway was sufficient to enhance tumor cell survival and growth potential. Elevated ErbB3 expression in the high-density 3D culture system was strongly associated with hypoxia-induced HIF-1α. Hypoxia-regulated ErbB3 expression was mediated by the HIF-1α-binding consensus sequence in the ErbB3 proximal promoter. The findings show that the local 3D tumor microenvironment can trigger reprograming and switching of ErbB family members and thereby influence ErbB3-driven tumor growth.
