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

The novel human gene, designated ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2Q family member 1 (UBE2Q1) maps to chromosome 1q21.3. The gene has an open reading frame corresponding to 422 amino acids and contains a RWD domain and an E2 ubiquitin conjugating enzyme domain. Here, we investigated the expression levels of both mRNA and protein of UBE2Q1 gene in cancerous versus normal parts of breast specimens from 26 patients. Real-time PCR data showed that the relative expression level of UBE2Q1 mRNA was significantly greater in cancers than in non-cancerous tissues of breast specimens (Mean ± SEM, 0.064 ± 0.015 for cancers and 0.026 ± 0.01 for noncancerous tissues, P < 0.05 Mann-Whitney test). A rabbit polyclonal antibody was generated against an amino acid sequence predicted from the DNA sequence of UBE2Q1 gene. This antibody was used to perform Western blotting on 21 cases in our cohort of breast specimens. Thus, 13 (61.904%) of the cases showed an increase in the UBE2Q1 immunoreactivity in their cancerous tissues as compared with the corresponding normal tissues. This result along with the real-time PCR data shows that the novel human gene, UBE2Q1, is expressed in human breast and may have implications for pathogenesis of breast cancer.
