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

We have transfected high-molecular-weight DNA from human thyroid carcinomas into murine 3T3 cells. As a result we identified several foci of morphologically distinct transformed cells in each of the tumour DNA transfected cultures. After a total of three rounds of transfection, the transformed cells were shown to form tumours in nude mice. Southern blot analysis of DNA prepared from third-round transfectants demonstrated the presence of human Alu repetitive sequences and, after hybridization with probes for known oncogenes, indicated the presence of the human H-RAS oncogene in 3T3 cells transfected with three out of four anaplastic carcinoma DNA samples. It appears therefore that activation of RAS genes may be an important event in the development of the anaplastic thyroid tumours.
