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

The FGFR3-TACC3 fusion is an oncogenic driver in diverse malignancies, including bladder cancer, characterized by upregulated tyrosine kinase activity. To gain insights into distinct properties of FGFR3-TACC3 down-stream signalling, we utilised telomerase-immortalised normal human urothelial cell lines expressing either the fusion or wild-type FGFR3 (isoform IIIb) for subsequent quantitative proteomics and network analysis. Cellular lysates were chemically labelled with isobaric tandem mass tag reagents and, after phosphopeptide enrichment, liquid chromatography-high mass accuracy tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was used for peptide identification and quantification. Comparison of data from the two cell lines under non-stimulated and FGF1 stimulated conditions and of data representing physiological stimulation of FGFR3 identified about 200 regulated phosphosites. The identified phosphoproteins and quantified phosphosites were further analysed in the context of functional biological networks by inferring kinase-substrate interactions, mapping these to a comprehensive human signalling interaction network, filtering based on tissue-expression profiles and applying disease module detection and pathway enrichment methods. Analysis of our phosphoproteomics data using these bioinformatics methods combined into a new protocol-Disease Relevant Analysis of Genes On Networks (DRAGON)-allowed us to tease apart pathways differentially involved in FGFR3-TACC3 signalling in comparison to wild-type FGFR3 and to investigate their local phospho-signalling context. We highlight 9 pathways significantly regulated only in the cell line expressing FGFR3-TACC3 fusion and 5 pathways regulated only by stimulation of the wild-type FGFR3. Pathways differentially linked to FGFR3-TACC3 fusion include those related to chaperone activation and stress response and to regulation of TP53 expression and degradation that could contribute to development and maintenance of the cancer phenotype.
