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

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common form of adult leukemia in Western countries, and there is significant variability in survival within CLL clinical stages. Earlier studies showed that CLL cells produce and are usually growth inhibited by transforming growth factor beta type 1 (TGF-beta1), suggesting a mechanism for the clinically indolent course of most CLL. Here we studied the mechanism by which CLL cells from about one-third of the patients are insensitive to TGF-beta1. Of the 13 patients studied, CLL cells isolated from the peripheral blood of 8 patients were sensitive to growth inhibition by TGF-beta1, as determined by incorporation of tritiated thymidine, whereas those from 5 patients were completely resistant to TGF-beta1. As judged by binding of radiolabeled TGF-beta1 followed by cross-linking and immunoprecipitation with anti-receptor antisera, CLL cells sensitive to TGF-beta1 exhibited normal cell surface expression of both types 1 and 2 TGF-beta receptors. In contrast, all CLL cells resistant to TGF-beta1 exhibited no detectable surface type I receptors able to bind TGF-beta1, but normal expression of type II receptors. Both TGF-beta1-sensitive and TGF-beta1-resistant CLL cells contained normal amounts of both type 1 and type 2 receptor mRNAs. Specific loss of type 1 receptor expression represents a new mechanism by which cells acquire resistance to TGF-beta1-mediated growth inhibition in the development and progression of human lymphoproliferative malignancies.
