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

Melanoma is the most aggressive type of skin cancer, leading to metabolic rewiring and enhancement of metastatic transformation. Efforts to improve its early and accurate diagnosis are largely based on preclinical models and especially cell lines. Hence, we herein present a combinational Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR)- and Ultra High Performance Liquid Chromatography-High-Resolution Tandem Mass Spectrometry (UHPLC-HRMS/MS)-mediated untargeted metabolomic profiling of melanoma cells, to landscape metabolic alterations likely controlling metastasis. The cell lines WM115 and WM2664, which belong to the same patient, were examined, with WM115 being derived from a primary, pre-metastatic, tumor and WM2664 clonally expanded from lymph-node metastases. Metabolite samples were analyzed using NMR and UHPLC-HRMS. Multivariate statistical analysis of high resolution NMR and MS (positive and negative ionization) results was performed by Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Partial Least Squares-Discriminant Analysis (PLS-DA) and Orthogonal Partial Least Squares-Discriminant Analysis (OPLS-DA), while metastasis-related biomarkers were determined on the basis of VIP lists, S-plots and Student's t-tests. Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves of NMR and MS data revealed significantly differentiated metabolite profiles for each cell line, with WM115 being mainly characterized by upregulated levels of phosphocholine, choline, guanosine and inosine. Interestingly, WM2664 showed notably increased contents of hypoxanthine, myo-inositol, glutamic acid, organic acids, purines, pyrimidines, AMP, ADP, ATP and UDP(s), thus indicating the critical roles of purine, pyrimidine and amino acid metabolism during human melanoma metastasis.
