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

The relationship between the p53 signal pathway and the response of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) to interferon (IFN)-beta has hitherto not been examined. Using an oligonucleotide microarray, we found differential expression of at least 70 genes involved in the p53 signal pathway, including p53, which regulate cell proliferation and cell death following stimulation with IFN-beta. We verified our observations on a limited set of p53-regulated genes at the transcriptional and translational levels. We also examined the consequences of the activation of the p53 signal pathway by IFN-beta in PBMC. When cultured in the presence of T-cell mitogens, IFN-beta restricted the entry of lymphocytes from the G0/G1 phase to the S phase and reduced the number of cells in the G2 phase. The addition of IFN-beta alone did not increase apoptosis. However, in the presence of actinomycin D, a DNA-damaging agent, addition of IFN-beta enhanced the susceptibility of PBMC to apoptosis. These observations suggest that, in spite of the activation of a number of mutually overlapping pathways mediating cell death, cell cycle arrest was the most evident consequence of IFN-beta signalling in PBMC.
