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

The c-Myc transcription factor regulates expression of genes related to cell growth, division, and apoptosis. Mxi1, a member of the Mad family, represses transcription of c-Myc-regulated genes by mediating chromatin condensation via histone deacetylase and the Sin3 corepressor. Mxi1 is a c-Myc antagonist and suppresses cell proliferation in vitro. Here, we describe the identification of Mxi1-0, a novel Mxi1 isoform that is alternatively transcribed from an upstream exon. Mxi1-0 and Mxi1 have different amino-terminal sequences, but share identical Max- and DNA-binding domains. Both isoforms are able to bind Max, to recognize E-box binding sites, and to interact with Sin3. Despite these similarities and in contrast to Mxi1, Mxi1-0 is predominantly localized to the cytoplasm and fails to repress c-Myc-dependent transcription. Although Mxi1-0 and Mxi1 are coexpressed in both human and mouse cells, the relative levels of Mxi1-0 are higher in primary glioblastoma tumors than in normal brain tissue. This variation in the levels of Mxi1-0 and Mxi1 suggests that Mxi1-0 may modulate the Myc-inhibitory activity of Mxi1. The identification of Mxi1-0 as an alternatively transcribed Mxi1 isoform has significant implications for the interpretation of previous Mxi1 studies, particularly those related to the phenotype of the mxi1 knockout mouse.
