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

Ubiquitinating enzymes catalyze protein ubiquitination, a reversible process countered by deubiquitinating enzyme (DUB) action. Ubiquitin-specific protease 4 (USP4) is a member of the ubiquitin-specific protease (USP) family of DUBs that has a role in spliceosome regulation. In the present study, we demonstrated that USP4 may be involved in neuronal apoptosis in the processes of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We obtained a significant up-regulation of USP4 in neurons adjacent to the hematoma following ICH by the results of Western blot, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence. Increasing USP4 level was found to be accompanied by the up-regulation of active caspase-3, γH2AX, Bax, and decreased expression of Bcl-2. In addition, USP4 co-localized well with γH2AX in the nucleus in the ICH model and hemin-induced apoptosis model. Moreover, in vitro study, knocking down USP4 by USP4-specific siRNA in PC12 cells reduced active caspase-3 expression. All these results above suggested that USP4 may be involved in neuronal apoptosis after ICH.
