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 NOVA (neuro-oncological ventral antigen) protein family, composed of two paralogs, NOVA1 and NOVA2, consists of RNA-binding proteins involving in processes such as alternative splicing and transport of some target mRNAs. The function of NOVA has been well studied, and increasing evidence has shown that NOVA proteins may be important contributors to carcinogenesis. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the roles of NOVA proteins in carcinogenesis remain to be determined. Here, we have identified both NOVA1 and NOVA2 as novel β-catenin RNA-binding proteins. The NOVA1/NOVA2 heterodimer positively regulates β-catenin expression by enhancing β-catenin mRNA stability. Furthermore, we demonstrated that NOVA1 and NOVA2 promote epithelial-mesenchymal transition via β-catenin in breast cancer cells, as NOVA-induced upregulation of epithelial and mesenchymal marker expression was attenuated by restoring β-catenin expression. Our results advance the current understanding of β-catenin post-transcriptional regulation and shed light on the role of NOVA proteins in cancer, suggesting that NOVA proteins are potential therapeutic targets in breast cancer.
