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 768 (ZNF768) is an emerging transcription factor regulating cell proliferation and senescence. Although the role of ZNF768 in regulating cell fate decision has been demonstrated in vitro, its importance in controlling physiological and pathophysiological processes in vivo is still unclear. Here, we report the generation of a transgenic mouse model allowing the conditional overexpression of ZNF768. This was achieved by inserting an inverted Znf768 coding sequence surrounded by heterologous Cre recognition sites in the Gt(ROSA)26Sor mouse locus (FLExZnf768). To study the impact linked to systemic overexpression of ZNF768, mice carrying the FLExZnf768 allele were crossed with CMV-Cre mice to produce a whole-body ZNF768 transgenic mouse (WB-ZNF768-Tg). As expected, WB-ZNF768-Tg mice showed higher ZNF768 levels in various tissues. These mice were born at the expected Mendelian ratio and did not display apparent phenotypes. Because ZNF768 levels are often overexpressed in cancer, we assessed tumor development in WB-ZNF768-Tg mice. However, ZNF768 overexpression was not sufficient to promote 3-methylcholantrene-induced fibrosarcoma and KRAS
