In Vivo Tumorigenicity Assays Using Subcutaneous and Orthotopic Xenografts in Immunodeficient Mice.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Evaluation of tumorigenic potential of medulloblastoma cell lines in vivo has been the obvious and major next step following cell line driven research for last many years. Effect of changes in expression of gene/s or efficacy of anticancer drugs on tumor initiation and/or growth can be easily assessed by injecting genetically modified cell lines in vivo or by treating in vivo xenografts of established cell lines with newer inhibitors or anticancer drugs. These studies are easy to perform and to reproduce in comparison to patient derived xenografts owing to ease in propagating, maintaining, and modifying genetic makeup of cell lines. Here we describe standardized protocols of obtaining either subcutaneous or orthotopic xenografts of medulloblastoma cell lines in immunodeficient mice. Once established, tumor growth of xenografts can be assessed during the course of experiment by either employing a simple method using Vernier caliper or technically demanding but sensitive method like in vivo bioluminescence imaging. In addition, xenograft tumors of euthanized animals can be preserved as formalin-fixed tissue specimens for further histopathological, immunohistochemical, or molecular analysis.
