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

Accumulations of higher inositol polyphosphates, diphosphoinositol polyphosphates or pyrophosphates, have been implicated to mediate cellular apoptosis. Whether cellular levels of lower inositol phosphates (lower than inositol hexakisphosphates) change during apoptosis is not known, although these inositol phosphates are known to play crucial roles in a number of cellular signaling processes including calcium mobilization. Therefore, in this study, we have examined changes in cellular levels of inositol phosphates following metabolic labeling of these compounds by [(3)H]myo-inositol and induction of apoptosis. The levels of inositol mono- and bis-phosphates were increased, whereas the levels of inositol tris- and tetrakis-phosphates decreased significantly with an increasing rate of apoptosis induced by etoposide in a dose-dependent manner. NaF treatment, which increased the rate of apoptosis in a time- and dose-dependent manner, also increased the levels of inositol mono- and bis-phosphates and drastically reduced the levels of inositol tris- and tetrakis-phosphates. Prior treatment with antimycin A, a strategy used to reverse the NaF-induced accumulations of higher InsPs, partially reduced the effects of NaF on apoptosis as well as the levels of lower InsPs. Taken together, our results suggest that cellular levels of lower InsPs are altered during apoptosis.
