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

Zinc finger protein 500 (ZNF500) has an unknown expression pattern and biological function in human tissues. Our study revealed that the ZNF500 mRNA and protein levels were higher in breast cancer tissues than those in their normal counterparts. However, ZNF500 expression was negatively correlated with advanced TNM stage (p = 0.018), positive lymph node metastasis (p = 0.014), and a poor prognosis (p < 0.001). ZNF500 overexpression abolished in vivo and in vitro breast cancer cell proliferation by activating the p53-p21-E2F4 signaling axis and directly interacting with p53 via its C2H2 domain. This may prevent ubiquitination of p53 in a manner that is competitive to MDM2, thus stabilizing p53. When ZNF500-∆C2H2 was overexpressed, the suppressed proliferation of breast cancer cells was neutralized in vitro and in vivo. In human breast cancer tissues, ZNF500 expression was positively correlated with p53 (p = 0.022) and E2F4 (p = 0.004) expression. ZNF500 expression was significantly lower in patients with Miller/Payne Grade 1-2 than in those with Miller/Payne Grade 3-5 (p = 0.012). ZNF500 suppresses breast cancer cell proliferation and sensitizes cells to chemotherapy.
