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

Casein kinase 2 (CK2) is an evolutionarily conserved serine/threonine kinase implicated in a wide range of cellular functions and known to be dysregulated in various diseases such as cancer. Compared to most other kinases, CK2 exhibits several unusual properties, including dual co-substrate specificity and a high degree of promiscuity with hundreds of substrates described to date. Most paradoxical, however, is its apparent constitutive activity: no definitive mode of catalytic regulation has thus far been identified. Here we demonstrate that copper enhances the enzymatic activity of CK2 both
