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

Eukaryotic initiation factor 6 (eIF6), an essential protein important in ribosome biosynthesis and assembly, was identified as an interacting partner of the beta-catenin C terminus in the yeast two-hybrid assay. Independent studies identified Drosophila eIF6 (DeIF6) in a genetic screen designed to detect new genes involved in the regulation of the Wnt/Wg (wingless) pathway. Ectopic expression of DeIF6 in wing discs results in a Wg phenotype. Expression of eIF6 in adenomatous polyposis coli (APC)-mutant colon cancer cells, which express high levels of active beta-catenin, showed that eIF6 selectively inhibits the Wnt pathway at the level of beta-catenin protein independently of proteasomal degradation. Incorporation of radiolabeled amino acids into beta-catenin was selectively decreased in cells that overexpressed eIF6. A similar inverse relationship of the two proteins was observed in the APC(min/+) mouse intestine, in which beta-catenin levels are very high. Taken together these data reveal a link between eIF6 and Wnt signaling, perhaps at the level of ribosome recycling on beta-catenin mRNA.
