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

Calcium induces transcriptional activation of the fos promoter by activation of the cyclic AMP response element (CRE)-binding protein (CREB), and in some cells its effect is enhanced synergistically by cyclic GMP (cGMP) through an unknown mechanism. We observed calcium-cGMP synergism in neuronal and osteogenic cells which express type II cGMP-dependent protein kinase (G-kinase); the effect on the fos promoter was mediated by the CRE and proportional to G-kinase activity. Dominant negative transcription factors showed involvement of CREB- and C/EBP-related proteins but not of AP-1. Expression of C/EBP-beta but not C/EBP-alpha or -delta enhanced the effects of calcium and cGMP on a CRE-dependent reporter gene. The transactivation potential of full-length CREB fused to the DNA-binding domain of Gal4 was increased synergistically by calcium and cGMP, and overexpression of C/EBP-beta enhanced the effect, while a dominant negative C/EBP inhibited it. With a mammalian two-hybrid system, coimmunoprecipitation experiments, and in vitro binding studies, we demonstrated that C/EBP-beta and CREB interacted directly; this interaction involved the C terminus of C/EBP-beta but occurred independently of CREB's leucine zipper domain. CREB Ser(133) phosphorylation was stimulated by calcium but not by cGMP; in cGMP-treated cells, (32)PO(4) incorporation into C/EBP-beta was decreased and C/EBP-beta/CRE complexes were increased, suggesting regulation of C/EBP-beta functions by G-kinase-dependent dephosphorylation. C/EBP-beta and CREB associated with the fos promoter in intact cells, and the amount of promoter-associated C/EBP-beta was increased by calcium and cGMP. We conclude that calcium and cGMP transcriptional synergism requires cooperation of CREB and C/EBP-beta, with calcium and cGMP modulating the phosphorylation states of CREB and C/EBP-beta, respectively.
