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

Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in men over the age of sixty. Lysine acetyltransferase 5 (KAT5) is a histone acetyltransferase involved in transcriptional regulation, DNA repair, and cell signaling pathways. Previous studies have shown that KAT5 expression is reduced in the cytoplasm of the prostate cancer cell line LNCaP when exposed to androgen. Moreover, KAT5 has been reported to have a role in the molecular pathway leading to androgen-independent prostate cancer after long-term androgen deprivation therapy. Here, we showed that KAT5 expression was significantly reduced in prostate cancer tissues and cell lines by using the public databases Oncomine and Human Protein Atlas. Reduced KAT5 expression was significantly associated with high mortality in prostate cancer patients. Furthermore, KAT5 overexpression increased the level of apoptotic markers, such as cleaved-caspase 3, in LNCaP cells, thus enhancing the apoptotic death of LNCaP cells. Taken together, KAT5 induced apoptosis in prostate cancer cells via the caspase-3 pathway, indicating that KAT5 could be a gene therapy target for prostate cancer.
