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

The role of p53 tumor suppressor gene in the pathomechanism of adrenal tumors was investigated by measuring p53 protein and its messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) in 12 normal human adrenals as well as in 56 adrenal tumors (7 aldosterone-producing adenomas, 5 adrenocortical adenomas causing Cushing's syndrome, 19 non-hyperfunctioning adrenocortical adenomas, 5 adrenocortical carcinomas, 12 pheochromocytomas, 3 myelolipomas, 4 ganglioneuromas and 1 hemangioma). The p53 protein concentration was significantly increased in aldosterone-producing adenomas (394+/-36 pg/mg cytosolic protein, mean+/-SE, vs 266+/-18 in normal human adrenals), whereas the concentration of this protein in Cushing's adenomas, non-hyperfunctioning adrenocortical adenomas, pheochromocytomas, and in all but one adrenocortical carcinomas was similar to that measured in normal human adrenal tissues. One adrenocortical carcinoma tissue showed very high p53 protein content (3000 pg/mg cytosolic protein). By contrast, myelolipomas (23+/-20) ganglioneuromas (43+/-15) and a hemangioma (11 pg/mg cytosolic protein) had very low p53 protein content. Northern blot analysis revealed the presence of p53 mRNA in each adrenal tissue examined with highest levels in aldosterone-producing and Cushing's adenomas. It is possible that the differences in p53 protein and/or mRNA contents reflect corresponding differences in the pathogenetic importance of p53 alterations in these types of adrenal tumors.
