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

hZip1 has been characterized as the major zinc uptake transporter regulating the accumulation of zinc in prostate cells. The mechanisms regulating expression of hZip1 have not been described. To explore the mechanisms of transcriptional regulation of the hZip1 gene, we determined the putative promoter sequence for hZip1 and identified the potential transcription start site within the predicted hZip1 promoter region. To further characterize the promoter region for basal hZip1 transcription, 3' and 5' deletion constructs and constructs with mutated binding sites for putative transcription factors were generated by PCR amplification and assessed for transcriptional activity with a luciferase reporter assay in PC-3 prostate cancer cells. The ability of the specific transcription factors to bind the hZip1 core promoter was confirmed by EMSA, GelSupershift and ChIP assays. Our experiments identified the core promoter region responsible for constitutive expression of hZip1 and demonstrated critical roles for SP1 and CREB1 in transcriptional regulation of the hZip1 gene in prostate cancer cells.
