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

Many studies have reported proliferative, differentiating or protective effects of estradiol, notably through estrogen receptor alpha (ERα). On the contrary, the ligand-independent action of ERα is currently poorly documented notably in cell protection. The stable transfection of wild type, substituted or truncated form of ERα in PC12 cells (ERα negative cell line) lead the specific study of its ligand-independent action. Hence, we demonstrate here that, in the absence of E2, the expression of ERα prevents cells from apoptosis induced by serum deprivation. This protection is not due to an ERE-mediated transcription and does not require either AF-1 or AF-2 transactivation functions. It is afforded to the Y537 residue of ERα and activation of c-Src/Stat3 signaling pathway.
