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

Wnt5a is an extracellular glycoprotein that activates Wnt signaling pathways, important in development and tissue homeostasis. Wnt5a expression is often misregulated during cancer progression. In this study, we analyzed the transcriptional regulation of two of the Wnt5a alternative promoters, termed A and B. Transient transfection of promoter A and B luciferase reporter constructs in to NIH3T3 and Caco-2 cells indicated that the separated promoters are both functional and that 300-450 base pair (bp) of upstream sequence is sufficient for activity. Promoter B constructs displayed distinct patterns of expression in the two cell types. The endogenous levels of promoter A-derived transcripts were found to be greater than the promoter B transcripts by four- to sixfold in fibroblast cells. Treatment of NIH3T3 cells with tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha leads to an increase in both promoter A and B activities, but promoter B was more responsive. Using inhibitors of TNF-alpha effector proteins, we provide evidence that the transcription factor nuclear factor-kappaB and the MEK1/2 and p38 kinases have distinct roles in determining the activity levels of promoters, A and B. These results support the conclusion that Wnt5a promoters, A and B, are differentially regulated and provide a model for complex transcriptional regulation of Wnt5a.
