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

Okadaic acid (OA) is a strong tumor promoter of mouse skin carcinogenesis and also a potent inhibitor of serine/threonine protein phosphatases. OA induces various genetic alterations in cultured cells, such as diphtheria-toxin-resistance mutations, sister chromatid exchange, exclusion of exogenous transforming oncogenes, and gene amplification. The present study revealed that it caused minisatellite mutation (MSM) at a high frequency in NIH 3T3 cells, although no microsatellite mutation was found. Nine of 31 clones (29%) exhibited MSM after 6 days of OA treatment, as opposed to only 1 of 30 clones (3%) without OA exposure. Moreover, NIH 3T3 cells treated with OA acquired tumorigenicity in nude mice, giving rise to 7 tumors within 25 weeks in 20 sites where 3 x 10(6) cells were injected. In contrast, the same numbers of untreated cells gave rise to only one tumor, and the tumor grew much slower. All of three OA-induced tumors examined manifested the MSM. The findings thus point to a molecular mechanism by which OA could function as a tumor promoter, and also the biological relevance of the induction of MSM in the tumorigenic process by OA.
