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

B cell leukemia-3 (Bcl-3) has been defined as an anti-apoptotic gene; however, the exact mechanisms through which Bcl-3 influences apoptosis have been elusive. To determine the specific role of Bcl-3 in apoptosis, we evaluated the effect of its silencing on the expression of proteins involved in either the extrinsic or intrinsic apoptotic pathways induced by ultraviolet light B-mediated DNA damage. We found that, in Bcl-3-silenced cells, caspase-3, caspase-8 and caspase-9 activation is accelerated and tBid mitochondrial content is increased. It is important to note that, although mitochondrial Smac levels were reduced after UV exposure, the rate of reduction was slightly higher in Bcl-3 silenced cells than in control cells. Additionally, p53 levels diminished in Bcl-3 silenced cells compared to control cells, as did those of DNA-PK, a DNA repair protein. Altogether, our data indicate that Bcl-3 protects cells from apoptosis by regulating both apoptotic pathways.
