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

Constitutive activation of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) has been directly implicated in tumorigenesis of various cancer types, including melanoma. Inhibitor of kappaB kinase (IKK) functions as a major mediator of NF-kappaB activation. Thus, development of an IKK-specific inhibitor has been a high priority, although it remains unclear whether systemic inhibition of IKK will provide therapeutic benefit. In this study, we show that inhibition of NF-kappaB activity in melanocytes that are persistently expressing an active H-Ras(V12) gene and are deficient in the tumor suppressors inhibitor A of cyclin-dependent kinase 4/alternative reading frame results in reduction of melanoma tumor growth in vivo. This effect is, at least in part, via regulation of NF-kappaB nuclear activation and RelA phosphorylation. Based on this result, we developed a double hammerhead ribozyme long-term expression system to silence either IKKalpha or IKKbeta. The ribozymes were placed in an EBV construct and delivered i.v. to nude mice bearing melanoma lesions, which developed after i.v. injection of H-Ras-transformed melanoma cells. Our in vivo data show that knockdown of endogenous IKKbeta significantly reduces the growth of the melanoma lesions and knockdown of either IKKalpha or IKKbeta prolongs the life span of immunocompetent mice.
