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

backgroundThe integrin β6 gene, which is expressed in epithelial cancer, plays a pivotal role in various aspects of cancer progression. The present research for integrin β6 regulation mainly focuses on the post-transcription and translation related regulation mechanism and its role in tumorigenesis. The mechanisms of how the integrin β6 gene is regulated transcriptionally, and the promoter and transcription factors responsible for basic transcription of integrin β6 gene remain unknown.

aimTo clone and characterize the integrin β6 promoter.

methodsSoftware analysis was used to predict the region of integrin β6 promoter. Luciferase reporter plasmids, which contained the integrin β6 promoter, were constructed. Element deletion analysis was performed to identify the location of core promoter and binding sites for transcription factors.

resultsThe regulatory elements for the transcription of the integrin β6 gene were located between -286 and -85 and contained binding sites for transcription factors such as STAT3 and Ets-1.

conclusionFor the first time, we found the region of β6 core promoter and demonstrated the binding sites for transcription factors such as Ets-1 and STAT3, which are important for integrin β6 promoter transcription activity. These findings are important for investigating the mechanism of integrin β6 activation in cancer progression.
