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

There are more than two million new cases of non-melanoma skin cancers (NMSCs) diagnosed each year in the United States of America. The clear etiological factor is chronic exposure to solar radiation from the sun. The wavelengths of solar light that reach the earth's surface include UVB (280-320 nm), which accounts for 1-10%, and UVA (320-400 nm), which accounts for 90-99% of the radiation. While most published research has focused on the effects of UVB, little is known concerning UVA-mediated signal transduction pathways, and their role in skin tumor promotion and progression, giving rise to squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs). Here, we focus on UVA-mediated activation of p38 MAP kinase and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and their roles in activator protein-1 (AP-1) mediated transcription, cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and Bcl-XL expression. Since p38 MAP kinase and JNK play major roles in the expression of UVA-induced AP-1, COX-2 and Bcl-XL, pharmacological inhibitors of these kinases may be useful in the chemoprevention of SCC skin cancer.
