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

5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide (AICA) riboside, a precursor of purine nucleotide biosynthesis, induces apoptosis in Jurkat cells. Incorporation of AICAriboside into the cells is necessary for this effect since addition of nitrobenzylthioinosine, a nucleoside-transport inhibitor, completely protects Jurkat cells from apoptosis. Adenosine, but not other nucleosides, also protects Jurkat cells from AICAriboside-induced apoptosis. The apoptotic effect is caspase-dependent since caspases 9 and 3 are activated and the caspase inhibitor benzyloxycarbonyl-Val-Ala-Asp-fluoromethylketone (Z-VAD.fmk) blocks apoptosis. Furthermore, AICAriboside induces mitochondrial cytochrome c release. AICAriboside, when phosphorylated to AICAribotide (ZMP), is a specific activator of the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in certain cell types. However, AICAriboside does not activate AMPK in Jurkat cells. Moreover, 5-iodotubercidin, an inhibitor of AICAriboside phosphorylation, does not inhibit apoptosis in Jurkat cells. These results indicate that AICAriboside induces apoptosis independently of ZMP synthesis and AMPK activation in Jurkat cells.
