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 core of the tumor microenvironment in the hematological system is formed by bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs). In the present study, we explored the interaction between the urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) system and the leukemia bone marrow microenvironment (BMM). We established BMSCs-HL60 and HS-5-K562 co-culture models in direct contact mode to simulate the BMM in leukemia. In BMSCs-HL60 co-culture model, the expression levels of uPA, uPA receptor (uPAR), plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in BMSCs were higher than those in mono-cultured BMSCs. Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 (MMP-9) was up-regulated in co-cultured HL60 cells. In HS-5-K562 co-culture model, only uPA, PAI-1, and VEGF-A were up-regulated in HS-5 cells. The levels of the uPA protein in the co-culture supernatant were significantly higher than that of mono-cultured BMSCs or HS-5 cells. Our findings demonstrate that the co-culture stimulates the production of uPA, uPAR, PAI-1, MMP-9, and VEGF-A by BMSCs. It could further explain how the uPA system in leukemia cells is involved in the growth, development, and prognosis of leukemia.
