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 p21(WAF1/CIP1/sdi1) gene product (WAF1) inhibits DNA replication in vitro (J. Chen, P. Jackson, M. Kirschner, and A. Dutta, Nature 374:386-388, 1995; S. Waga, G. Hannon, D. Beach, and B. Stillman, Nature 369:574-578, 1994), but in vivo studies on the antiproliferative activity of WAF1 have not resolved G1-phase arrest from potential inhibition of S-phase progression. Here, we demonstrate that elevated WAF1 expression can retard replicative DNA synthesis in vivo. The WAF1-mediated inhibitory effect could be antagonized by cyclin A, cyclin E, or the simian virus 40 small-t antigen with no decrease in the levels of WAF1 protein in transfected cells. Proliferating-cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) overexpression was neither necessary nor sufficient to antagonize WAF1 action. Expression of the N-terminal domain of WAF1, responsible for cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) interaction, had the same effect as full-length WAF1, while the PCNA binding C terminus exhibited modest activity. We conclude that S-phase progression in mammalian cells is dependent on continuing cyclin and CDK activity and that WAF1 affects S phase primarily through cyclin- and CDK-dependent pathways.
