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

p38 MAPKs (mitogen-activated protein kinases) play important roles in the regulation of cellular responses to environmental stress. Recently, this signalling pathway has also been implicated in the regulation of processes unrelated to stress, for example, in T lymphocytes and cardiomyocytes. In order to identify molecular targets responsible for the housekeeping functions of p38 MAPKs, we have analysed the differences in the transcriptomes of normally proliferating wild-type and p38alpha knockout immortalized embryonic cardiomyocytes. Interestingly, many potential components of the myocardium extracellular matrix were found to be upregulated in the absence of p38alpha. Further analysis of the microarray data identified TEF-1 (transcriptional enhancer factor-1), a known regulator of heart-specific gene expression, and C/EBPbeta (CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein beta), as the two transcription factors the binding sites of which were most enriched in the promoters of p38alpha-regulated genes. We have focused on the study of the extracellular matrix component COL1A1 (alpha1 chain of type I collagen) and found evidence for the involvement of both TEF-1 and C/EBPbeta in the p38alpha-dependent inhibition of COL1A1 transcription. Our data therefore show that p38 MAPKs regulate TEF-1 and C/EBPbeta transcriptional activity in the absence of environmental stress and suggests a role for p38alpha in the expression of extracellular matrix components that maintain organ architecture.
