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

Previous studies have demonstrated a proapoptotic role for the transcription factor STAT3 in involuting murine mammary epithelium, resulting in delayed involution and lower levels of apoptosis in the STAT3 null gland relative to wild-type controls. As p53 was implicated in the eventual involution of the STAT3 null gland, we examined the effect of STAT3 loss in the mammary gland in a p53 null background. Combined loss of STAT3 and p53 severely perturbed involution, with hyperdelayed loss of epithelium and reappearance of adipocytes. The early apoptotic response was almost completely abrogated, although elevated levels of delayed apoptosis persisted at days 6, 17 and 4 weeks of involution in STAT3-p53 doubly null mammary glands. A 5.7-fold upregulation of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21Waf1 at 3 days of involution in STAT3 null glands was abolished in STAT3-p53 doubly null glands -- suggesting that the critical factor triggering delayed involution in the STAT3 null gland is a p53-dependent rise in p21Waf1 levels around day 3 of involution. Further, STAT3-p53 doubly null glands showed significantly higher levels of proliferation compared to STAT3 or p53 singly null (or wild-type) glands at days 6, 17 and 4 weeks of involution. Combined loss of STAT3 and p53 therefore results in hyperdelayed involution, demonstrating their synergistic physiological roles in normal involution. This inappropriate retention of p53-deficient cells may represent a novel mechanism of tumour predisposition.
