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 promyelocytic leukemia protein, PML, plays a vital role in the cellular response to oxidative stress; however, the molecular mechanism of its action remains poorly understood. Here, we identify redox-sensitive sites of PML. A molecule of PML is cysteine-rich and contains three zinc-binding domains including RING, B-box1, and B-box2. Using in vitro assays, we have compared the sensitivity of the isolated RING and B-box1 domains and shown that B-box1 is more sensitive to oxidation. NMR studies of PML dynamics showed that one of the Zn-coordination sites within the B-box1 undergoes significant conformational exchange, revealing a hotspot for exposure of reactive cysteines. In agreement with the in vitro data, enhancement of the B-box1 Zn-coordination dynamics led to more efficient recruitment of PML into PML nuclear bodies in cells. Overall, our results suggest that the increased sensitivity of B-box1 to oxidative stress makes this domain an important redox-sensing component of PML.
