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

purposeRecently, we found that erufosine (erucylphospho-N,N,N trimethylpropylammonium) can induce up-regulation of RhoB expression in oral squamous carcinoma (OSCC) cells, thereby hinting at a tumor suppressive role. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the role of RhoB in the tumor suppressive mode of action of erufosine on OSCC cells.

methodsAnti-proliferative effects of erufosine were determined in HN-5 and FaDu OSCC-derived cells using a MTT assay. RhoB up-regulation was detected using microarray and qRT-PCR-based expression assays at IC

resultsWe found that after erufosine treatment of HN-5 and FaDu cells for 24, 48 and 72 h the IC

conclusionsOur data show that erufosine can cause up-regulation of RhoB expression in OSCC cells. Combining erufosine treatment with siRNA-mediated RhoB knockdown did, however, not reveal a role of RhoB in its tumor suppressive mode of action.
