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

Steroid hormone receptors (SHRs), such as glucocorticoid receptors (GR) and progesterone receptors (PR), are shuttling proteins that undergo continuous nuclear import and export. Various mechanisms have been proposed to explain the localization of SHRs. It has been suggested that the ligand-binding domain (LBD) of SHRs is important in determining the subcellular localization. We have studied the localization of GR-LBD and PR-LBD alone, as well as of full-length GR and PR in the presence of geldanamycin (GA), a benzoquinoid ansamycin that specifically inhibits heat shock protection (Hsp90), using transient transfections and fluorescent microscopy. Our studies have indicated that GR-LBD and PR-LBD are retained in the cytoplasm via interaction with Hsp90. It was observed that in the unliganded state, treatment with GA translocates these LBDs to the nucleus. Similar results were obtained for full-length PR and GR. Additionally, it was found that after ligand induction, GA accelerated reexport of SHRs after ligand washout, implicating Hsp90 in nuclear retention of SHRs in the washout state. We also propose that a recently found "export" signal present in the LBD of SHRs is involved in interactions with Hsp90 and hence cytoplasmic retention of these receptors. After ligand induction, Hsp90 also may play a role in nuclear retention of SHRs following hormone washout.
