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

v-myc is the viral homolog of c-myc transduced by several acute transforming retroviruses, many of which encode this gene as a Gag-Myc fusion protein. The v-myc oncogene can transform several lineages of mammalian and avian cells either alone or in cooperation with other oncogenes. While the Gag portion of the Gag-Myc fusion protein and the nuclear localization signal each appear to be dispensable for transformation, the N- and C-termini of the Myc sequence have been found to be essential for transformation. All v-myc genes contain point mutations which seem to confer a greater potency to v-myc in the process of transformation, proliferation, and apoptosis. In v-myc-transformed myelomonocytic cells, secondary events occur, such as the expression of colony stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) which play a critical role in immortalization and subsequent tumor progression. Inhibition of the autocrine loop of CSF-1 was found to induce apoptosis in the immortalized cells. While overexpression of v-Myc blocks terminal differentiation of hematopoietic cells, this is not sufficient to block the differentiation of certain neural and skeletal muscle cells. Recent developments on the effects of v-myc on cell growth, transformation, differentiation and apoptosis are discussed in this review.
