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

Ebp1, an ErbB3 receptor-binding protein, inhibits the proliferation and induces the differentiation of human cancer cells. Ebp1 binds nuclear Akt and prevents DNA fragmentation by inhibiting caspase-activated DNase. Here, we show that Ebp1 possesses two different isoforms, p48 and p42, which differentially mediate PC12 cell survival and differentiation. The longer-form p48 localizes in both the cytoplasm and the nucleus and suppresses apoptosis, whereas the shorter-form p42 predominantly resides in the cytoplasm and promotes cell differentiation. EGF strongly stimulates p42 to bind ErbB3, and the association depends on PKC-mediated phosphorylation of Ebp1. By contrast, p48 does not bind to ErbB3 regardless of EGF treatment. Overexpression of p48 provokes cell proliferation, which is inhibited by p42. Moreover, nerve growth factor elicits extensive sprouting in p42 stably transfected PC12 cells, whereas p48 cells reveal modest neurite outgrowth. Although mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade remains similar in both cells, Akt is more active in p48 cells than in p42 cells. Thus, Ebp1 might regulate cell survival and differentiation through two distinctive p48 and p42 isoforms.
