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

Human fibrosarcoma HT1080 cell surface phenotype analysis revealed the expression of "cluster of differentiation 15" (CD15) antigen and to a lesser extent, of "very late antigen-4" (VLA-4). Expression of "endothelial-leukocyte adhesion molecule-1" (ELAM-1) was negligible on resting human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs), but its expression could be induced by HT1080 conditioned medium. HT1080 cell adhesion to HUVECs was partially dependent on CD15/ELAM-1 adhesion molecules. HT1080 cell adhesion to HUVECs induced the enhancement of nitric oxide (NO) production from HUVECs. Exogenous NO and NO from HUVECs enhanced ELAM-1 expression on HUVECs, HT1080 cell adhesion to HUVECs, permeability of the HUVEC monolayer, and HT1080 cell invasion through the HUVEC monolayer. These enhancements were not induced by NO synthase inhibitor, N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME). These results suggest that NO expression induced by tumor cells via the CD15/ELAM-1 adhesion system may contribute to enhancement of tumor cell adhesion to endothelial cells and hyperpermeability of the endothelium, facilitating tumor cell invasion.
