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

Various agonist-induced cell responses in neutrophils and fibroblasts, such as chemotaxis and cytoskeletal rearrangements, have been shown to correlate with the synthesis of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3; however, the significance of this rise in second messenger levels is not clear. We show here that wortmannin inhibits platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-mediated production of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 in human foreskin fibroblasts with an IC50 of about 5 nM. A similar inhibition was observed in in vitro assays (IC50 approximately 1 nM) with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase immunoprecipitated by antibodies directed against the 85 kDa subunit (p85). On the other hand, wortmannin did not affect PDGF-mediated phosphorylation of p85 as detected by immunoprecipitation with anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies, and did not dissociate the complex of p85 and the catalytic subunit (p110) of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. These results are consistent with a direct, specific inhibition of the enzyme by wortmannin at concentrations relevant for its previously reported effects on cellular responses. When stimulated with PDGF, human foreskin fibroblasts form circular structures of filamentous actin. Preincubation of these cells with wortmannin inhibits PDGF-mediated actin rearrangements, suggesting a need for PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 formation as a signal for this cell response.
