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

BACKGROUND/

aimAndrogens are essential for the growth of most prostate cancers (PCa). As a result, androgen ablation is the mainstay of the treatment of PCa. Proteins of the polycomb and trithorax family are master epigenetic regulators of cell type specific gene expression including androgen receptor. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe interrogated epigenetic changes of a 24-gene panel corresponding to polycomb and trithorax genes by PCR array and differential gene expression by quantitative real time-PCR on prostate cancer cell line (LNCaP) treated with the synthetic ligand R1881.

resultsWe observed the highest methylation for CBX2, PCGF6, PHC2, EZH2 and TRIM27 genes and the lowest methylation for CBX8 and PCGF2 (p<0.05), and a modest decrease in the expression of EZH2.

conclusionDifferential methylation profiles of polycomb and trithorax genes may contribute to the dynamics of prostate carcinogenesis.
