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

p16(INK4a) (hereafter referred to as p16), a major cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor, is the product of a tumor-suppressor gene that has been found inactivated in different cancer types. In the present study, we sought to investigate the role of p16 in apoptosis induced by ultraviolet light (the most important etiological cause of skin cancer) and cisplatin (an anticancer DNA damaging agent). It is clearly shown that p16-compromised osteosarcoma U2OS cell line and p16-/- mouse embryo fibroblasts are sensitive to UV-induced apoptosis, as compared to their respective isogenic p16-expressing cells (EH1, EH2) and p16 +/+, indicating that p16 protects cells from undergoing apoptosis in response to UV light. Importantly, this reduction in UV-mediated apoptosis was associated with downregulation of the proapoptotic Bax protein, with no effect on Bcl-2 expression, suggesting that this antiapoptotic role of p16 is mediated via the intrinsic-mitochondrial pathway. On the other hand, p16 sensitized cells to cisplatin-mediated apoptosis through Bcl-2 decline. Interestingly, only proliferating but not G1-arrested EH1 cells underwent apoptosis in response to the anticancer drug. These novel findings provide further insight into the role of p16 in carcinogenesis, and has potential implications for future therapy strategies.
