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

The effect of insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) on tumour development in the mouse mammary gland was studied. To promote extra IGF-II expression in the mammary gland, sheep beta-lactoglobulin regulatory elements were attached to the coding regions of the mouse Igf-2 gene and injected into the pronuclei of mouse zygotes. Mammary tumours developed in each of the four independent lines of mice which expressed transgene IGF-II in the gland. Tumours from two of the lines grew after transplantation to both male and female hosts. Primary tumours contained stromal and epithelial regions, but the tumours were dominated by mammary adenocarcinoma after transplantation. The tumours expressed high levels of Igf-2 mRNA transcribed from the integrated transgenes.
