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

Interleukin 6 is the in vivo growth factor of myeloma cells. In response to IL-6 stimulation, the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway is activated in these cells. With comparative proteomic approaches, this study reveals many putative downstream effectors of the PI3K/AKT pathway. Mass spectrometry analysis of excised protein spots from 2-dimensional gel allowed the identification of proteins such as β-Actin, cyclophilin A, E3 SUMO-protein ligase PIAS-NY protein, HSP 27, PML, and transforming growth factor β-2. Among these putative effectors, β-Actin was chosen for further characterization. Phosphorylation of β-Actin by AKT upon IL-6 stimulation was confirmed by western blotting using a phospho-AKT substrate antibody. Interestingly, IL-6 significantly increased cell migration (P < 0.05) and the content of filamentous actin (P < 0.05). Therefore, IL-6 stimulation could have effects on the migration of myeloma cells, and the phosphorylation of β-Actin is probably involved in the process.
