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

Activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3) is the first p53 stability regulator that interferes with the ubiquitination of p53. However, the E6 oncoprotein of high-risk human papillomaviruses (HPVs) binds to and induces proteasome-dependent degradation of the host p53 protein. Herein, we investigate the effects of ATF3 overexpression on cell cycle progression and apoptosis in HPV-18-infected HeLa cells, and further examine whether ATF3 could alter the apoptosis level of HeLa cells through the inhibition of E6-mediated p53 degradation. Cytological function of HeLa cells prior and subsequent to the overexpression of ATF3 was assessed using cell cycle and annexin V/PI flow cytometry analysis. Western blotting assays revealed no significant effect of ATF3 on the levels of p53 and E6 in HeLa cells. However, annexin V staining demonstrated increases in apoptosis. ATF3 acts as a tumor suppressor factor in HPV18-related cervical cancer which mediates apoptotic functions through a p53-independent pathway.
