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

backgroundHigh-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is the most common and lethal ovarian cancer histotype. Chromosome instability (CIN, an increased rate of chromosome gains and losses) is believed to play a fundamental role in the development and evolution of HGSOC. Importantly, overexpression of Cyclin E1 protein induces CIN, and genomic amplification of CCNE1 contributes to HGSOC pathogenesis in ~20% of patients. Cyclin E1 levels are normally regulated in a cell cycle-dependent manner by the SCF (SKP1-CUL1-FBOX) complex, an E3 ubiquitin ligase that includes the proteins SKP1 and CUL1. Conceptually, diminished SKP1 or CUL1 expression is predicted to underlie increases in Cyclin E1 levels and induce CIN.

methodsThis study employs fallopian tube secretory epithelial cell models to evaluate the impact diminished SKP1 or CUL1 expression has on Cyclin E1 and CIN in both short-term (siRNA) and long-term (CRISPR/Cas9) studies.

resultsSingle-cell quantitative imaging microscopy approaches revealed changes in CIN-associated phenotypes and chromosome numbers and increased Cyclin E1 in response to diminished SKP1 or CUL1 expression.

conclusionsThese data identify SKP1 and CUL1 as novel CIN genes in HGSOC precursor cells that may drive early aetiological events contributing to HGSOC development.
