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

B-cell leukemia/lymphoma protein 3 (Bcl3), a member of the IκB family proteins, regulates the transcriptional activities of the NF-κB family of transcription factors. It is known that aberrant Bcl3 activities induce malignancies of both hematologic and non-hematologic origins. Overexpressed, mutated and/or phosphorylated Bcl3 has been implicated in several cancers due to its altered transcriptional activities. However, the physiological function of Bcl3 in immune homeostasis remained elusive to date. In this study, Bcl3 knockout zebrafish were generated to investigate its role in immune regulation. Bcl3 deficient zebrafish exhibited growth retardation and significantly reduced survival. Histological analyses revealed the absence of Hassall bodies in the thymus and hepatocellular nuclear abnormalities, indicating compromised integrity of the immune organs. Zebrafish with Bcl3 deficiency further showed enhanced immune responses and increased susceptibility to both bacterial and viral infections, resulting in significantly elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines
