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.
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
aimTo study the effects of IkappaBalpha and its mutants (IkappaBalphaM, IkappaBalpha243N, IkappaBalphaM244C) on NF-kappaB, p53 and their downstream target genes. The relationship of NF-kappaB, p53, and IkappaBalpha was further discussed.
methodspECFP-IkappaBalpha, pECFP-IkappaBalphaM (amino acides 1-317, Ser32, 36A), pECFP-IkappaBalpha243N (amino acides 1-243), pECFP-IkappaBalpha244C (amino acides 244-317), pEYFP-p65 and pp53-DsRed were constructed and transfected to ASTC-alpha-1 cells. Cells were transfected with pECFP-C1 as a control. 30 h after the transfection, location patterns of NF-kappaB, p53 and IkappaBalpha (IkappaBalphaM, IkappaBalpha243N, IkappaBalpha244C) were observed by a laser scanning microscope (LSM510/ConfoCor2, Zeiss). RNA extraction and reverse transcription were performed in cells transfected or co-transfected with different plasmids. Effects of IkappaBalpha and its mutants on the transprition level of NF-kappaB, NF-kappaB downstream target gene TNF-alpha, p53 and p53 downstream target gene Bax were observed by real time QT-PCR. In all experiments beta-actin was reference. Results are expressed as the target/reference ratio of the sample divided by the target/reference ratio of the control. Different transfected cells were incubated with CCK-8 for 2 h in the incubator. Then the absorbance at 450 nm was measured by using a microplate reader.
resultsCells that were transfected with p53-DsRed revealed a predominant nuclear localization. YFP-p65 mainly existed in the cytoplasm. Cells were transfected with CFP-IkappaBalpha, CFP-IkappaBalphaM, and CFP-IkappaBalpha243N respectively and revealed a predominant cytosolic localization. However, cells transfected of CFP-IkappaBalpha244C revealed a predominant nuclear localization. The mRNA levels of p65, TNF-alpha, p53 and Bax in CFP-IkappaBalpha transfected cells did not change significantly, while in YFP-p65/CFP-IkappaBalpha co-transfected cells, IkappaBalpha decreased the transcription of p65 downstream gene TNF-alpha (2.24+/-0.503) compared with the YFP-p65/CFP-C1 co-transfected cells (5.08+/-0.891) (P<0.05). Phosphorylation defective IkappaBalpha (IkappaBalphaM) decreased the transcription levels of all the four genes compared with the control (P<0.05). The N terminus of IkappaBalpha (IkappaBalpha243N) increased the transcription of NF-kappaB (1.84+/-0.176) and TNF-alpha (1.51+/-0.203) a little bit. However, the C terminus of IkappaBalpha (IkappaBalpha244C) increased the transcription of NF-kappaB, TNF-alpha, p53 and Bax significantly (8.29+/-1.662, 14.16+/-2.121, 10.2+/-0.621, 3.72+/-0.346) (P<0.05). The CCK-8 experiment also showed that IkappaBalpha244C and p53 synergistically mediate apoptosis.
conclusionsIkappaBalpha and its mutants (IkappaBalphaM, IkappaBalpha243N, IkappaBalphaM244C) have different effects on NF-kappaB and p53 signaling pathways, according to their different structures. IkappaBalphaM bounds with NF-kappaB and p53 in cytoplasm steadily, and inhibits both of the two signaling pathways. p53 and IkappaBalpha244C may be co-factor in inducing apoptosis. The C terminal of IkappaBalpha enhanced cell death, which suggests that it may be a pro-apoptotic protein existed in cells.
