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

Expression of the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) latency-associated genes activates cell cycle progression and drives immortalization of the infected cell. In contrast, progression of the EBV replication program occurs most efficiently in growth-arrested cells. Previous studies showed that the EBV-encoded immediate-early transcription factor, Zta, can induce expression of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors, p21 and p27, the tumor suppressor, p53, and cell growth arrest. Moreover, Zta-mediated induction of growth arrest occurs independently of its transcriptional transactivation function. Here we show that substitution of Zta's basic DNA binding domain with the analogous region of the Zta homologue, c-Fos, abrogates Zta's ability to induce growth arrest and to induce p21, p27, or p53 expression, suggesting that protein-protein interactions between this region of Zta and key cell cycle control proteins are involved in signaling cell cycle arrest. We also show that despite the crucial role for Zta's basic domain in eliciting cell growth arrest, its amino terminus is required for efficient induction of p27 and it modulates the level of p53 induction. Last, we provide evidence that Zta-mediated inductions of p21, p27, and p53 occur, at least in part, through distinct pathways. Therefore, Zta interacts with multiple growth arrest pathways, a property which may have evolved partly as a means to ensure that lytic replication occurs in a growth-arrested setting in multiple different tissues in various states of differentiation.
