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

Neuregulins (NRGs), which are highly expressed in the nervous system, bind and activate two receptor tyrosine kinases, ErbB-3 and ErbB-4. Recently, we have shown that ErbB-4 receptors expressed in PC12 cells mediate NRG-induced differentiation through the MAPK signaling pathway. Here we demonstrate that NRG induces an increase in the intracellular concentration of reactive oxygen species (ROS). N-acetylcysteine, a ROS scavenger, inhibited NRG-induced activation of Ras and Erk and PC12-ErbB-4 cell differentiation. These results suggest that ROS production is involved in NRG-mediated neuronal differentiation and that ROS can regulate activation of Ras and Erk. Constitutively active Ras enhanced ROS production and dominant negative Ras inhibited NRG-induced ROS production, suggesting, a positive regulatory loop between Ras and ROS. The mitogen, EGF, induced short-term ROS production whereas NRG and NGF, which induce cell differentiation, induced prolonged ROS production. These results strongly suggest that the kinetics of ROS production may determine whether the cells will differentiate or proliferate.
