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

Hypermethylation of CpG islands in the RASSF1 promoter is one of the most frequent events identified in human cancer. The epigenetic-driven loss of RASSF1A protein expression is observed more often in tumors of higher grade and correlates with a decreased responsiveness to DNA-damaging therapy. Ras association domain-containing family 1A (RASSF1A) promotes apoptosis by signaling through the MST2 and LATS1 kinases, leading to stabilization of the YAP1/p73 transcriptional complex. Here we provide evidence for a new pathway linking DNA damage signaling to RASSF1A via the main sensor of double-strand breaks in cells, ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM). We show that, upon DNA damage, RASSF1A is phosphorylated by ATM on Ser131 and is involved in the activation of both MST2 and LATS1, leading to the stabilization of p73. Furthermore, lung and ovarian tumor cell lines that retain RASSF1A expression commonly harbor polymorphisms in the region of Ser131, and our analysis shows that the S131F polymorphism conveys resistance to DNA-damaging agents. Thus, we present a novel DNA damage pathway emanating from ATM that is frequently disabled in tumors via epigenetic silencing of RASSF1 or mutation of an ATM phosphorylation site.
