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

Carcinosarcoma of the urinary bladder is a very rare and aggressive subtype of bladder cancer with poor prognosis. Characteristically carcinosarcomas exhibit biphasic nature with both epithelial and mesenchymal differentiation. Limited information is available regarding its clinical features and appropriate treatments due to its rarity. Development of tumour models can further our understanding of bladder carcinosarcoma. We report establishment and characterization of the first-ever bladder carcinosarcoma cell line MaS-3. It is established by the outgrow method from 86 year-old caucasian male who underwent a radical pelvic resection after neoadjuvant radiotherapy. MaS-3 showed carcinosarcoma profile with high conformity with to the original tumour in terms of immunocytochemistry. Proteome analysis also aligned the MaS-3 cell line with the carcinosarcoma specimen rather than corresponding non-malignant tissue. Chemotherapy sensitivity testing revealed a great sensitivity of MaS-3 growth to 5-Fluorouracil, Gemcitabine and Cisplatin, with almost no impact of Irinotecan. Additionally, the suitability of MaS-3 for 3D in vitro experiments was also demonstrated. The newly established cell line MaS-3 shows typical characteristics of the tumour and may thus be a useful in vitro model system for studying the tumour biology and developing future of treatments of this rare but very aggressive entity.
