Stem cells from a malignant rat prostate cell line generate prostate cancers
Article in American journal of clinical and experimental urology, 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
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are resistant to conventional cancer therapies, permitting the repopulation of new tumor growth and driving disease progression. Models for testing prostate CSC-propagated tumor growth are presently limited yet necessary for therapeutic advancement. Utilizing the congenic nontumorigenic NRP152 and tumorigenic NRP154 rat prostate epithelial cell lines, the present study investigated the self-renewal, differentiation, and regenerative abilities of prostate stem/progenitor cells and developed a CSC-based PCa model. NRP154 cells expressed reduced levels of tumor suppressor caveolin-1 and increased p-Src as compared to NRP152 cells. Gene knockdown of caveolin-1 in NRP152 cells upregulated p-Src, implicating their role as potential oncogenic mediators in NRP154 cells. A FACS-based Hoechst exclusion assay revealed a side population of stem-like cells (0.1%) in both NRP152 and NRP154 cell lines. Using a 3D Matrigel culture system, stem cells from both cell lines established prostaspheres at a 0.1% efficiency through asymmetric self-renewal and rapid proliferation of daughter progenitor cells. Spheres derived from both cell lines contained CD117
