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

Addition of short (6 to 16 amino acids) peptide sequences to the N-terminus of p110α induces a gain of function. Such sequences include the common Flag, His, and VSV tags as well as random sequences. An N-terminal myristylation signal generally believed to activate p110α by providing a constitutive membrane address is also activating, if myristylation is mutationally abolished. The gain of function seen with N-terminally tagged (NTT) p110α constructs extends to signaling, oncogenic transformation and stimulation of cell growth. The activating effect of N-terminal tags requires a functional Ras-binding domain in p110α. Mutations in that domain (T208D and K227A) abolish the gains of function in oncogenicity and signaling. The dominant negative mutant of Ras, RasN17, interferes with transformation induced by NTT p110α. In contrast, binding to p85 activity is not required for cellular transformation and enhanced signaling by NTT p110α.
