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

Histone deacetylase (HDAC) proteins are promising targets for cancer treatment, as shown by the recent FDA approval of the HDAC inhibitor suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA, Vorinostat) for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. To identify additional potent inhibitors and characterize HDAC mutant proteins, there is interest to develop an inexpensive screening method dependent on native substrates. Here, we report the first yeast-based gene reporter screen dependent on the yeast Rpd3, which is a homolog of human class I HDAC proteins. The screen was sensitive to an inactive Rpd3 mutant and various inhibitors in qualitative, agar-based and quantitative, solution-phase formats. Interestingly, inclusion of the lytic enzyme zymolyase enhanced the inhibitor sensitivity of the screen. The gene reporter screen provides a tool to screen Rpd3 mutants and inhibitors of class I HDAC proteins.
