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

Rhabdomyosarcoma is the most common soft tissue sarcoma in children and young adults. Rhabdomyosarcomas are skeletal muscle-like tumours that typically arise in muscle beds, and express key myogenic regulatory factors. However, their developmental program remains blocked in the proliferative phase with cells unable to exit the cell cycle to fuse into myotubes. Recently, we uncovered a key role for the RNA-binding protein Staufen1 during myogenic differentiation through the regulation of c-myc translation. Given the known implication of c-myc in rhabdomyosarcoma, we hypothesized in the current work that Staufen1 controls rhabdomyosarcoma tumorigenesis. Here, we report for the first time the novel role of Staufen1 in cancer, specifically in rhabdomyosarcoma. We demonstrate that Staufen1 is markedly upregulated in human rhabdomyosarcoma tumours and cell lines as compared to normal skeletal muscle. Moreover, we show that Staufen1 promotes the tumorigenesis of embryonal and alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma subtypes both in cell culture and in animal models. Finally, our data demonstrate that Staufen1 has differential roles in embryonal versus alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma through the control of proliferative and apoptotic pathways, respectively. Together, these results provide the first evidence for Staufen1's direct implication in cancer biology. Accordingly, Staufen1 thus represents a novel target for the development of future therapeutic strategies for rhabdomyosarcoma.
