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 transcriptional co-regulator SKI is a potent inhibitor of TGFbeta-growth inhibitory signals. SKI binds to receptor-activated Smads in the nucleus, forming repressor complexes containing HDACs, mSin3, NCoR, and other protein partners. Alternatively, SKI binds to activated Smads in the cytoplasm, preventing their nuclear translocation. SKI is necessary for anchorage-independent growth of melanoma cells in vitro, and most important, for human melanoma xenograft growth in vivo. We recently identified a novel role of SKI in TGFbeta signaling. SKI promotes the switch of Smad3 from repressor of proliferation to activator of oncogenesis by facilitating phosphorylations in the linker domain. High levels of endogenous SKI are required by the tumor promoting trait of TGFbeta to induce expression of the plasminogen-activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), sustained expression of C-Myc and for aborting upregulation of p21(Waf-1). Here we discuss how SKI diversifies and amplifies its functions by associating with multiple protein partners and by promoting Smad3 linker phosphorylation(s) in response to TGFbeta signaling in melanoma cells.
