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

In clear cell renal cancers, the primary molecular defect is inactivation of the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) gene. Loss of pVHL, the VHL gene product, leads to constitutive activation of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) signaling. While downregulation of HIF suppresses tumor formation by pVHL-defective renal carcinoma cells, the relative contribution of individual HIF regulated genes to HIF-dependent tumorigenesis remains under investigation. Mxi1, a c-Myc antagonist, is a HIF target gene that inhibits mitochondrial biogenesis, reprograms cellular energy metabolism, and protects cells from c-Myc-dependent apoptosis in vitro. In the present study we show that Mxi1 is overexpressed in primary human clear cell kidney cancers. Inhibition of Mxi1 in pVHL-defective kidney cancer cells using shRNA alters their cell cycle parameters, inhibits their ability to invade matrigel, and suppresses their ability to form tumors in vivo. Compared to Mxi1-proficient tumors, Mxi1-deficient tumors display reduced cellular proliferation. These results establish Mxi1 as an important downstream target of HIF that contributes to pVHL-deficient renal cancer tumorigenesis.
