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

backgroundSurvivin is thought to contribute to stem cell maintenance partly by a hypomethylation mechanism. This study attempted to elucidate the signal transduction pathway of adipocyte-derived stem cells (ASCs) by using a demethylating agent, 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (ADC), to analyze the survivin, MEK/ERK, c-Myc and p53 gene expression.

methodsDemethylation in the ASCs was induced by 1 microM ADC treatment. RT-PCR for survivin mRNA was preformed, before and 24, 48 and 72 hours (hr) after ADC treatment. Western blotting analysis was performed for p53, survivin, unphosphorylated and phosphorylated (p)-MEK, and p-ERK. Immunohistochemistry for ERK and survivin was done to evaluate the localization of the proteins.

resultsADC inhibited the population growth of the ASCs and it increased the number of apoptotic cells 24, 48, and 72 hr after treatment. ADC treatment slightly decreased the expression of survivin mRNA after 48 hr and its level was restored after 72 hr of treatment. Otherwise, the level of survivin protein gradually increased up to 48 hr and it was decreased at 72 hr. The levels of p-MEK and p53 were increased time-dependently. c-Myc and p-ERK were elevated after ADC treatment and their highest levels were seen 48 hr after treatment. The ADC treatment increased the nuclear expression of ERK and survivin in the ASCs.

conclusionsThe overexpression of p-MEK/ERK, p53, and c-Myc increased the survivin protein expression of the demethylated ASCs. These results suggest that demethylation could alter the expression of survivin, and p53, c-Myc and the MAPK (MEK/ERK) pathway might play a role in survivin's regulation in ASCs.
