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

We have previously reported the identification of a novel 17 kDa truncated isoform of the cyclin D2 activated in 13% of the leukemias induced by the Graffi murine leukemia retrovirus. Retroviral integration in the Gris1 locus causes an alternative splicing of the mouse cyclin D2 gene and expression of a truncated protein of 159 amino acids that is detected at high levels in the Gris1 tumors and also in normal mouse tissues mainly the brain and ovaries. A truncated form of the cyclin D2 was also found in human. We show here that both mouse- and human-truncated cyclin D2 are able to transform primary mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEF) when co-expressed with an activated Ras protein. The truncated cyclin D2 localizes only to the cytoplasm of transfected cells. It has retained the ability to interact with cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs), although it is a poor catalyst of pRb phosphorylation. Interestingly, the presence of a similar, alternatively spliced cyclin D2 mRNA was also detected in some human brain tumors.
