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

Alternative splicing (AS) is a widespread mechanism underlying the generation of proteomic and regulatory complexity. However, which of the myriad of human AS events play important roles in disease is largely unknown. To identify frequently occurring AS events in lung cancer, we used AS microarray profiling and reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) assays to survey patient-matched normal and adenocarcinoma tumor tissues from the lungs of 29 individuals diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Of 5,183 profiled alternative exons, four displayed tumor-associated changes in the majority of the patients. These events affected transcripts from the VEGFA, MACF1, APP, and NUMB genes. Similar AS changes were detected in NUMB and APP transcripts in primary breast and colon tumors. Tumor-associated increases in NUMB exon 9 inclusion correlated with reduced levels of NUMB protein expression and activation of the Notch signaling pathway, an event that has been linked to tumorigenesis. Moreover, short hairpin RNA (shRNA) knockdown of NUMB followed by isoform-specific rescue revealed that expression of the exon 9-skipped (nontumor) isoform represses Notch target gene activation whereas expression of the exon 9-included (tumor) isoform lacks this activity and is capable of promoting cell proliferation. The results thus reveal widespread AS changes in NSCLC that impact cell signaling in a manner that likely contributes to tumorigenesis.
