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

c-Myc is a transcription factor that is implicated in many cellular processes including proliferation, apoptosis and cancers. Recently, c-Myc was shown to be involved in regulation of glutamate cysteine ligase through E-box sequences. This investigation examined whether c-Myc also regulates phase II genes through interaction with the electrophile response element (EpRE). Experiments were conducted in human bronchial epithelial cells using si-RNA to knock down c-Myc. RT-PCR and reporter assays were used to measure transcription and promoter activity. c-Myc downregulated transcription and promoter activity of phase II genes. Chromatin immunoprecipitation verified binding of c-Myc to EpRE while coimmunoprecipitation demonstrated interaction of c-Myc with Nrf2. c-Myc also forms a ternary complex with Nrf2 and p-c-Jun. Finally, c-Myc decreased Nrf2 stability. Thus, our results suggest regulation of the EpRE/Nrf2 signaling pathway by c-Myc through both interaction with the EpRE binding complex and increased degradation of Nrf2.
