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

The aim of the present study was to observe the dynamic changes of proto-oncogene, serine/threonine kinase, Pim-1 at the gene and protein level in a mouse model of prostate cancer following surgical castration. Using LNCaP cells to establish a subcutaneous xenograft model and orthotopic prostate cancer BALB/c nude mouse models, the xenograft models were divided into an androgen-dependent prostate cancer group (ADPC), an androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) group and an androgen independent prostate cancer (AIPC) group. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), RT-quantitative PCR, ELISA and immunohistochemistry analyses were performed to compare the expression levels of Pim-1, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and androgen receptor (AR) in tumor tissue of three subgroups. Agarose gel electrophoresis revealed that the RT-PCR results of the ADPC (0.59±0.01) and AIPC groups (1.14±0.015) were significantly different when compared with the ADT group (0.62±0.026; P<0.05). As for RT-qPCR, the ΔCq of Pim-1 in the ADPC (6.15±0.34) and AIPC (4.56±0.23) groups were significantly different compared with the ADT group (5.11±0.21; P<0.05). Using 2
