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

We investigated the activation of c-fos transcription following UV irradiation, a 'stress' stimulus. In both HeLa TK- and NIH 3T3 cells the Serum Response Element is required for efficient UV-induced c-fos transcription, and in HeLa TK- cells the Ternary Complex Factor (TCF) binding site contributes substantially to activation. Consistent with this, UV irradiation activates LexA-TCF fusion proteins more strongly in HeLa TK- than in NIH 3T3 cells. The TCF C-termini of the TCFs are substrates for UV-induced MAP kinases: both the Elk-1 and SAP-1a C-termini are efficiently phosphorylated by the p38 MAPK, but only the Elk-1 C-terminus is a good substrate for the SAPK/JNKs. The specificity and activation kinetics of TCF C-terminal kinases, and the susceptibility of transcriptional activation by LexA-TCF fusion proteins to specific inhibitors of different MAPK pathways, show that both the ERK and p38 MAPK pathways contribute to TCF activation in response to UV irradiation. Activity of both these pathways is also required for the response of the c-fos gene itself to UV stimulation.
