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

Members of the FGF family of growth factors localize to the nuclei in a variety of different cell types. To determine whether FGF receptors are also present within nuclei and if this localization is regulated by FGFs, nuclei were prepared from quiescent and FGF-2-treated Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts and examined for the presence of FGF receptors by immunoblotting with an antibody produced against the extracellular domain of FGF receptor-1 (FGFR-1). Little or no FGFR-1 is detected in nuclei prepared from quiescent cells. When cells are treated with FGF-2, however, there is a time- and dose-dependent increase in the association of FGFR-1 immunoreactivity with the nucleus. In contrast, treatment with either EGF or 10% serum does not increase the association of FGFR-1 with the nucleus. When cell surface proteins are labeled with biotin, a biotinylated FGFR-1 is detected in the nuclear fraction prepared from FGF-2-treated, but not untreated, cells indicating that the nuclear-associated FGFR-1 immunoreactivity derives from the cell surface. The presence of FGFR-1 in the nuclei of FGF-2-treated cells was confirmed by immunostaining with a panel of different FGFR-1 antibodies, including one directed against the COOH-terminal domain of the protein. Fractionation of nuclei from FGF-2-treated cells indicates that nuclear FGFR-1 is localized to the nuclear matrix, suggesting that the receptor may play a role in regulating gene activity.
