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

Enhancement of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) proliferation is a central aim in bone marrow transplantation (BMT). A stem cell factor (SCF) and c-Kit mediated extracellular signaling trigger proliferation of HSCs. This signaling is negatively regulated by protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs), SHP-1 and SHP-2. Although NSC87877 (N) is known to inhibit SHP-1/SHP-2, c-Kit-mediated HSCs proliferation by inhibiting SHP-1/SHP-2 has not been reported. This study investigated the combined effect of SCF (S) and N in c-Kit mediated proliferation and underlying mechanisms. The growth of human megakaryoblastic cell line, MO7e and HSCs, upon treatment with S and N alone, and in combination was assessed by PrestoBlue staining. The expression of c-Kit, phosphorylated c-Kit, SHP-1/SHP-2 and HePTP inhibition using S and N treatment were evaluated in the MO7e cells. Megakaryoblast cell proliferation was determined by quantification of Ki-67+, S-phase, BrdU+ and CFDA-SE+ cells using flow cytometry. The combination of S and N leads to enhanced cell growth compared with either S or N alone. Collectively, the results reveal a novel mechanism by which S in combination with N significantly enhances proliferation of human megakaryoblast cells. The pretreatment of N before S enhances proliferation of cells than S alone. This promising combination would likely play an essential role in enhancing the proliferation of cells.
