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

Retinoblastoma binding protein 6 (RBBP6) is a nuclear protein, previously implicated in the regulation of cell cycle and apoptosis. The human RBBP6 gene codes for three protein isoforms and isoform 3 consists of the domain with no name domain only whilst the other two isoforms, 1 and 2 comprise of additional zinc, RING, retinoblastoma and p53 binding domains. In this study, the localization of RBBP6 using RBBP6 variant 3 mRNA-specific probe was performed to investigate the expression levels of the gene in different tumours and find a link between RBBP6 and human carcinogenesis. Using FISH, real-time PCR and Western blotting analysis our results show that RBBP6 isoform 3 is down-regulated in human cancers. RBBP6 isoform 3 knock-down resulted in reduced G2/M cell cycle arrest whilst its over-expression resulted in increased G2/M cell cycle arrest using propidium iodide DNA staining. The results further demonstrate that the RBBP6 isoform 3 may be the cell cycle regulator and involved in mitotic apoptosis not the isoform 1 as previously reported for mice. In conclusion, these findings suggest that RBBP6 isoform 3 is a cell cycle regulator and may be de-regulated in carcinogenesis.
