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

Estrogen receptor (ER) action is modulated by posttranslational modifications. Although ERalpha phosphorylation correlates with patient outcome, ERbeta is similarly phosphorylated but its significance in breast cancer has not been addressed. We investigated whether ERbeta that is phosphorylated at serine 105 (S105-ERbeta) is expressed in breast cancer and assessed potential clinical implications of this phosphorylation. Following antibody validation, S105-ERbeta expression was studied in tissue microarrays comprising 108 tamoxifen-resistant and 351 tamoxifen-sensitive cases and analyzed against clinical data. S105-ERbeta regulation in vitro was assessed by Western blot, flow cytometry, and immunofluorescence. Nuclear S105-ERbeta was observed in breast carcinoma and was associated with better survival (Allred score > or =3), even in tamoxifen-resistant cases, and additionally correlated with ERbeta1 and ERbeta2 expression. Distinct S105-ERbeta nuclear speckles were seen in some higher grade tumors. S105-ERbeta levels increased in MCF-7 cells in response to 17beta-estradiol, the ERbeta-specific agonist diarylpropionitrile, and the partial ERbeta-agonist genistein. S105-ERbeta nuclear speckles were also seen in MCF-7 cells and markedly increased in size and number at 24 hours following 17beta-estradiol and, in particular diarylpropionitrile, treatment. These speckles were coexpressed with ERbeta1 and ERbeta2. Presence of S105-ERbeta in breast cancer and association with improved survival, even in endocrine resistant breast tumors suggest S105-ERbeta might be a useful additional prognostic marker in this disease.
