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 factor p8 is a high mobility group (HMG) A family member that is upregulated during the cellular stress response in numerous tissues. Because expression of this protein encourages cellular transformation, our goal is to characterize the mechanism by which the p8 gene is regulated. Using LbetaT2 cells as a model of a transformed cell in which p8 plays a role in tumor formation, we dissected the p8 promoter into its minimal functional units and found that activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4), a factor also upregulated during cellular stress responses, enhances p8 promoter activity in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, ATF4 binds in the highly conserved major activation domain of the p8 proximal promoter between -130 and -100 bp. Furthermore, we show that six of the nine base pairs that encompass the putative element are essential for ATF4 binding. These findings increase our knowledge of the mechanisms regulating the p8 gene in a genetically defined tumor model.
