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

IkappaBalpha is a critical regulator of Rel/NF-KB-mediated gene activation. It controls the induction of NF-KB factors by retaining them in the cytoplasm and also functions in the nucleus to terminate the induction process. In this study, we show that IkappaBalpha regulates the transcriptional activity of c-Rel in the nuclear compartment. We also demonstrate that discrete functional domains of IkappaBalpha are responsible for the cytoplasmic and nuclear regulation of c-Rel. We show that the determinants for the cytoplasmic regulation of c-Rel reside in the N-terminal and central ankyrin regions of IkappaBalpha and that the N-terminal domain of IkappaBalpha is required to mask the c-Rel nuclear localization signal. Importantly, IkappaBalpha sequences necessary to regulate c-Rel in the nucleus map to its central ankyrin domain and to a few negatively charged amino acids that immediately follow in the C-terminal IkappaBalpha PEST domain. The mapping of the IkappaBalpha determinants that control the cytoplasmic and nuclear activities of c-Rel to specific regions of the molecule suggests that IkappaBalpha inhibitors could be designed to antagonize Rel/NF-kappaB activity in different subcellular compartments or at defined stages of activation.
