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

We analyzed regional DNA copy numbers in 4 oral squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) by using comparative genomic hybridization, and compared them with those in cell lines derived from the SCCs. In the original tumors, DNA copy number increases were observed on chromosomes 5p (4/4 cases), 8q (4/4), 20p (3/4), 3q (2/4), 5q (2/4), 7p (2/4), 7q (2/4), 11p (2/4), 11q (2/4) and 13q (2/ 4). Although most of these changes have been described previously for SCC tumors in the head and neck, the incidence of increases in 8q and 20p was much higher in the present study; this may be important in relation to cell line establishment, since 8q contains e-myc, which is involved in immortalization. No common chromosomal region with DNA copy number decreases was observed, except for 18q (2/4). When the original tumors and the cell lines were compared, their profiles were essentially similar with one exception. Further, there was no region that commonly changed in the cell lines, but not in the original tumors, suggesting that the DNA copy number changes observed in the cell lines mostly represent those of the original tumors.
