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

Aspartate-594 is the third most common BRAF residue mutated in human cancer. Mutants of this residue are kinase inactive, and the mechanism(s) by which they contribute to cancer has remained perplexing. Using a conditional knock-in mouse model, we show that the (D594A)Braf mutant does not drive tumor development per se but is able to induce aneuploidy in murine splenocytes and mouse embryonic fibroblasts and contributes to immortalization through the propagation of aneuploid cells. (D594A)Braf lacks kinase activity but induces the related gene product Craf as well as the mitogen-activated protein/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) kinase (MEK)/ERK pathway. Here, we show that the aneuploid phenotype is dependent on Craf. Treatment with the MEK inhibitor U0126 did not attenuate the emergence of aneuploidy but prevented the growth of aneuploid cells. These results provide a previously unidentified link between Craf and chromosomal stability, with important implications for our understanding of the development of cancers with driver mutations that hyperactivate Craf.
