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

A-MYB (MYBL1) is a transcription factor with a role in meiosis in spermatocytes. The related B-MYB protein is a key oncogene and a master regulator activating late cell cycle genes. To activate genes, B-MYB forms a complex with MuvB and is recruited indirectly to cell cycle genes homology region (CHR) promoter sites of target genes. Activation through the B-MYB-MuvB (MMB) complex is essential for successful mitosis. Here, we discover that A-MYB has a function in transcriptional regulation of the mitotic cell cycle and can substitute for B-MYB. Knockdown experiments in cells not related to spermatogenesis show that B-MYB loss alone merely delays cell cycle progression. Only dual knockdown of B-MYB and A-MYB causes G2/M cell cycle arrest, endoreduplication, and apoptosis. A-MYB can substitute for B-MYB in binding to MuvB. The resulting A-MYB-MuvB complex activates genes through CHR sites. We find that A-MYB activates the same target genes as B-MYB. Many of the corresponding proteins are central regulators of the cell division cycle. In summary, we demonstrate that A-MYB is an activator of the mitotic cell cycle by activating late cell cycle genes.
