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

In mouse cells, the major inducible heat shock protein is a protein of 68,000 daltons (hsp68). We have previously shown that mouse plasmacytomas do not express hsp68. We have now made use of these natural mutants to assess the contribution of hsp68 to acquired thermotolerance. An endpoint limiting dilution assay was used to quantify cell survival to lethal stresses. Two test plasmacytoma cell lines (C1.18.1 and J558) and an hsp68-positive myeloma, XC1.1/51, used as a control, were examined. All showed recovery when pretreated for 10 min at 44 degrees C 2 h before exposure to otherwise lethal stresses of 1 to 4 h at 43 degrees C. Similar results were obtained with the Friend erythroleukemia line D1B, which we have also shown not to express hsp68. These results indicate that hsp68 is not required for protection against thermal stresses in mouse cells.
