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

c-Myc (Myc) is a well known transcription factor that regulates many essential cellular processes; however, its role in modulating immunity is not known. Here, we showed different species of mycobacteria can induce Myc expression via ERK1/2 and JNK activation. Unexpectedly, the induced Myc is localized in the cytoplasm but not in the nucleus. This induced Myc expression is associated with the induction of TNF-α and IL-6 and with the suppression of intracellular mycobacterial growth. To delineate the underlying mechanisms, we demonstrated that Myc enhances IRAK1 degradation, leading to specific activations of ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK but not Akt, and reduces IκBα protein recovery upon degradation. Hence, our findings may provide insights into a potential role for Myc in regulating the antimicrobial responses.
