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

Infection with high-risk human papillomaviruses (HPV) is a major risk factor for development of cervical cancer. Expression of the HPV E6 and E7 oncoproteins increases in differentiating keratinocytes, resulting in inactivation of the p53 and retinoblastoma proteins, two important transcriptional regulators. We used cDNA microarrays to examine global alterations in gene expression in differentiating cervical keratinocytes after infection with retroviruses encoding HPV type 16 (HPV-16) E6 and E7. Expression of 80 cellular genes (approximately 4% of the genes on the array) was altered reproducibly by E6 and/or E7. Cluster analysis classified these genes into three functional groups: (i) interferon (IFN)-responsive genes, (ii) genes stimulated by NF-kappaB, and (iii) genes regulated in cell cycle progression and DNA synthesis. HPV-16 E6 or a dominant negative p53 protein downregulated multiple IFN-responsive genes. E6 decreased expression of IFN-alpha and -beta, downregulated nuclear STAT-1 protein, and decreased binding of STAT-1 to the IFN-stimulated response element. E7 alone was less effective; however, coexpression of E6 and E7 downregulated IFN-responsive genes more efficiently than E6. The HPV-16 E6 protein also stimulated expression of multiple genes known to be inducible by NF-kappaB and AP-1. E6 enhanced expression of functional components of the NF-kappaB signal pathway, including p50, NIK, and TRAF-interacting protein, and increased binding to NF-kappaB and AP-1 DNA consensus binding sites. Secretion of interleukin-8, RANTES, macrophage inflammatory protein 1alpha, and 10-kappaDa IFN-gamma-inducible protein were increased in differentiating keratinocytes by E6. Thus, high-level expression of the HPV-16 E6 protein in differentiating keratinocytes directly alters expression of genes that influence host resistance to infection and immune function.
