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

Chromosome translocation can lead to chimeric proteins that may become oncogenic drivers. A classic example is the fusion of the BCR activator of RhoGEF and GTPase and the ABL proto-oncogene nonreceptor tyrosine kinase, a result of a chromosome abnormality (Philadelphia chromosome) that causes leukemia. To unravel the mechanism underlying BCR-ABL-mediated tumorigenesis, here we compared the stability of ABL and the BCR-ABL fusion. Using protein degradation, cell proliferation, 5-ethynyl-2-deoxyuridine, and apoptosis assays, along with xenograft tumor analysis, we found that the N-terminal segment of ABL, which is lost in the BCR-ABL fusion, confers degradation capacity that is promoted by SMAD-specific E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 1. We further demonstrate that the N-terminal deletion renders ABL more stable and stimulates cell growth and tumorigenesis. The findings of our study suggest that altered protein stability may contribute to chromosome translocation-induced cancer development.
