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

Inhibitors of apoptosis (IAPs) are a family of cell death inhibitors found in viruses and metazoans that physically interact with a variety of pro-apoptotic proteins and inhibit apoptosis induced by diverse stimuli. Melanoma IAP (ML-IAP) is a potent anti-apoptotic protein that is strongly upregulated in melanoma and confers protection against a variety of pro-apoptotic stimuli. In the present study, it was revealed that ML-IAP was expressed at high levels in testicular teratoma. Deletion and mutational analysis demonstrated that ML-IAP silencing significantly decreased P19 cell proliferation while inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. ML-IAP knockdown significantly induced caspase-3/8/9-mediated apoptosis in P19 cells. In addition, metabolism and stemness maintenance in P19 cells were suppressed by ML-IAP knockdown. These results indicated that ML-IAP silencing is a powerful inducer of apoptosis mediated by cell death receptors and may function as a direct activator of downstream effector caspases.
