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

DNA tumor viruses are capable of driving quiescent cells into the cell cycle. In case of polyomaviridae, two viral proteins, the large and the small (ST) T antigens are responsible for this outcome. ST interacts with the protein phosphatase PP2A and with chaperons of the dnaK type and leads to the transactivation of several genes, which play a role in S-phase induction. One of these is the transcription factor myelocytomatosis (MYC), which by itself is an important regulator of growth. Microarray analysis has revealed several ST-induced genes, which are also targets of MYC; hence, ST may induce these genes via MYC. Experiments shown here are in line with this assumption. MYC-regulated genes are induced by ST at later times than MYC and a MYC responsive promoter is stimulated by ST. Regulation of MYC occurs through signal transduction pathways, which are co-ordinated by PP2A suggesting that they may be targets of ST. Here, we show that this is the case as important kinases involved in these pathways appear in the active phosphorylated form in the presence of ST. Inhibition of these kinases interferes with MYC induction and inhibition of MYC activity blocks ST-mediated transactivation.
