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

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) plays a central role in the regulation of serum calcium and phosphorus homeostasis, while parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) has important developmental roles. Both peptides signal through the same G protein-coupled receptor, the PTH/PTHrP or PTH type 1 receptor (PTH1R). PTHrP, normally a secreted protein, also contains a nuclear localization signal (NLS) that in vitro imparts functionality to the protein at the level of the nucleus. We investigated this functionality in vivo by introducing a premature termination codon in Pthrp in ES cells and generating mice that express PTHrP (1-84), a truncated form of the protein that is missing the NLS and the C-terminal region of the protein but can still signal through its cell surface receptor. Mice homozygous for the knock-in mutation (Pthrp KI) displayed retarded growth, early senescence, and malnutrition leading postnatally to their rapid demise. Decreased cellular proliferative capacity and increased apoptosis in multiple tissues including bone and bone marrow cells were associated with altered expression and subcellular distribution of the senescence-associated tumor suppressor proteins p16(INK4a) and p21 and the oncogenes Cyclin D, pRb, and Bmi-1. These findings provide in vivo experimental proof that substantiates the biologic relevance of the NLS and C-terminal portion of PTHrP, a polypeptide ligand that signals mainly via a cell surface G protein-coupled receptor.
