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 ubiquitin-proteasome system regulates many distinct biological processes. Its dysregulation causes various diseases, including but not limited to cancer. In this study, based on the analysis of gene expression in several colorectal cancer (CRC) datasets, we show that FBXL6, a poorly-characterized F-box protein, is amplified, over-expressed, and highly correlated with poor prognosis in human CRC patients. Mechanistically, FBXL6 targets phospho-p53 (S315) to mediate its polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation, thereby inhibiting p53 signaling. FBXL6 depletion inhibits proliferation of p53 wild-type (WT) CRC cells by inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Furthermore, p53 transcriptionally suppresses FBXL6 expression by binding its core promoter region. Taken together, these results identify the feed-forward loop of FBXL6-p53 as a potential therapeutic target for CRC treatments.
