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 c-MYC transcription factor is aberrantly expressed in most human cancers to enhance expression of proliferative gene programs. Owing to its pseudo-ordered structure and reliance on extensive and dynamic protein-protein interactions in distinct transcriptional regulatory complexes, defining context-specific MYC interactors has remained challenging. Therefore, mapping MYC-centered complex topologies in disease relevant models could identify components critical for its function which may serve as therapeutic targets in MYC-driven cancers. Here, we present a matched pair of photoproximity probes coupled with quantitative proteomics which enable context-dependent mapping of protein complex topology inside cells. We applied this spatially resolved, intracellular photoproximity (siPROX) profiling workflow to map MYC interactomes across temporal, spatial and disease-relevant contexts. Basal and inhibitor-treated profiles confirmed interactions with a wide range of known chromatin-associated transcriptional regulatory factors that define the extended MYC transcriptional bubble in live cells. Time-resolved mapping of inhibitor treated cells identified dynamic remodeling of numerous transcriptional regulatory factors and identified several BAF complex members (e.g., PBRM1 and SMARCC1)
