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

Malignant transformation of fibroblast and epithelial cells is accompanied by increased beta 1-6 N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V (GlcNAc-TV) activity, a Golgi N-linked oligosaccharide processing enzyme. Herein, we report that expression of GlcNAc-TV in Mv1Lu cells, an immortalized lung epithelial cell line results in loss of contact-inhibition of cell growth, an effect that was blocked by swainsonine, an inhibitor of Golgi processing enzyme alpha-mannosidase II. In serum-deprived and high density monolayer cultures, the GlcNAc-TV transfectants formed foci, maintained microfilaments characteristic of proliferating cells, and also experienced accelerated cell death by apoptosis. Injection of the GlcNAc-TV transfectants into nude mice produced a 50% incidence of benign tumors, and progressively growing tumors in 2:12 mice with a latency of 6 mo, while no growth was observed in mice injected with control cells. In short term adhesion assays, the GlcNAc-TV expressing cells were less adhesive on surfaces coated with fibronectin and collagen type IV, but no changes were observed in levels of cell surface alpha 5 beta 1 or alpha v beta 3 integrins. The larger apparent molecular weights of the LAMP-2 glycoprotein and integrin glycoproteins alpha 5, alpha v and beta 1 in the transfected cells indicates that their oligosaccharide chains are substrates for GlcNAc-TV. The results suggest that beta 1-6GlcNAc branching of N-linked oligosaccharides contributes directly to relaxed growth controls and reduce substratum adhesion in premalignant epithelial cells.
