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 human zinc finger protein 521 (ZNF521) is a co-transcriptional factor with multiple recognized regulatory functions in a range of normal, cancer and stem cell compartments. ZNF521 regulates proliferation, progression and CSC (cancer stem cell) compartments in human ovarian cancer (hOC), which is a very aggressive and late-diagnosed female tumor. Two other important regulators of hOC are the NRF2 and NOTCH signaling pathways. In the present paper, the mRNA and protein levels of ZNF521 were correlated with those of the NRF2-NOTCH signaling components in two different hOC cell lines and in a public dataset of 381 hOC patients. The data show that high levels of ZNF521 significantly increase NRF2-NOTCH signaling expression; conversely, the silencing of ZNF521 impairs NRF2-NOTCH signaling. This experimental work shows that, in hOC, different levels of ZNF521 modulate the NRF2-NOTCH signaling pathway and also influences hOC CSC properties.
