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

Tumors contain various stromal cells, such as immune cells, endothelial cells, and fibroblasts, which contribute to the development of a tumor-specific microenvironment characterized by hypoxia and inflammation, and are associated with malignant progression. In this study, we investigated the activity of intratumoral hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), which functions as a master regulator of the cellular response to hypoxia and inflammation. We constructed the HIF activity-monitoring reporter gene hypoxia-response element-Venus-Akaluc (HVA) that expresses the green fluorescent protein Venus and modified firefly luciferase Akaluc in a HIF activity-dependent manner, and created transgenic mice harboring HVA transgene (HVA-Tg). In HVA-Tg, HIF-active cells can be visualized using AkaBLI, an ultra-sensitive in vivo bioluminescence imaging technology that produces an intense near-infrared light upon reaction of Akaluc with the D-luciferin analog AkaLumine-HCl. By orthotopic transplantation of E0771, a mouse triple negative breast cancer cell line without a reporter gene, into HVA-Tg, we succeeded in noninvasively monitoring bioluminescence signals from HIF-active stromal cells as early as 8 days after transplantation. The HIF-active stromal cells initially clustered locally and then spread throughout the tumors with growth. Immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry analyses revealed that CD11b
