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 polycomb group (PcG) genes are epigenetic suppressors of gene expression that play an important role in development. In this study, we examine the role of Bmi-1 (B-cell-specific Moloney murine leukemia virus integration site 1) as a regulator of human epidermal keratinocyte survival. We identify Bmi-1 mRNA and protein expression in epidermis and in cultured human keratinocytes. Bmi-1 is located in the nucleus in cultured keratinocytes, and in epidermis it is expressed in the basal and suprabasal layers. Adenovirus-delivered Bmi-1 promotes keratinocyte survival and protects keratinocytes from stress agent-mediated cell death. This is associated with increased levels of cyclin D1 and selected cyclin-dependent kinases, and reduced caspase activity and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) cleavage. Bmi-1 may be involved in the maintenance of disease state, as Bmi-1 levels are elevated in transformed keratinocytes, skin tumors, and psoriasis. The presence of Bmi-1 in suprabasal non-proliferative cells of the epidermis and within a high percentage of cells within skin tumors suggests a non-stem cell pro-survival role for Bmi-1 in this tissue. Based on the suprabasal distribution of Bmi-1 in epidermis, we propose that Bmi-1 may promote maintenance of suprabasal keratinocyte survival to prevent premature death during differentiation. Such a function would help assure proper formation of the stratified epidermis.
