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

To characterize the molecular mechanism and map the response element used by progesterone (P) to upregulate tissue factor (TF) in breast cancer cells. TF expression and mRNA levels were analyzed in breast cancer ZR-75 and T47D cells, using Western blot and real-time PCR, respectively. Mapping of the TF promoter was performed using luciferase vectors. Progesterone receptor (PR) and specificity protein 1 (Sp1) binding to the TF promoter were analyzed by chromatin immuno precipitation assay. Specific or selective inhibitors were used for the MEK1/2 and the c-Src pathways (UO126 and PP2, respectively). TF mRNA increase peaks at 18 h following P treatment in ZR-75 and T47D cells. P upregulation occurs via a transcriptional mechanism that depends on PR and MEK1/2 activation, PR and Sp1 transcription factors bind to a region in the TF promoter that contains three Sp1 sites. TF mRNA upregulation requires an intact PR proline-rich site (mPRO), but it is independent from c-Src. TF upregulation by P is mediated by Sp1 sites in the TF promoter region. Transcriptional upregulation in breast cancer cells occurs via a new mechanism that requires MEK1/2 activation and the mPRO site but independent of c-Src activity. PR Phosphorylation at serine 294 and 345 is not essential.
