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

Adrenergic (ADRN) neuroblastoma cells have a paradoxical increase in TET1 expression and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) deposition in hypoxia. However, the effect of hypoxia on the mesenchymal (MES) lineage remains less well understood. To identify lineage specific hypoxia responses, we evaluated 5-hmC and RNA expression in a panel of ADRN and MES cells cultured in normoxic or hypoxic conditions. In hypoxia, MES cells had only a modestly elevated expression of hypoxia signaling and no phenotypic changes. In contrast, ADRN cells showed increased 5-hmC deposition and decreased mitochondrial function in hypoxia. In hypoxia, only ADRN cells had increased expression of MES signature genes (p < 0.05) and related pathways including TNF-α signaling. Publicly available RNA-Seq data of diagnostic tumors was accessed (GSE62564 and GSE73517). Each tumor was assigned a hypoxia score using a published hypoxia signature. A MES/hypoxia signature comprising 94 MES signature genes that had increased expression in ADRN cells exposed to hypoxia was also generated. This MES/hypoxia signature was significantly correlated with a T cell infiltration signature (r = 0.66, p = 2.3 × 10
