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 transcription factor and tumor suppressor protein p53 is the most frequently mutated and inactivated gene in cancer. Mutations in p53 result in deregulated cell proliferation and genomic instability, both hallmarks of cancer. There are currently no therapies available that directly target mutant p53 to rescue wild-type function. In this study, we identify covalent compsounds that selectively react with the p53 somatic mutant cysteine Y220C and restore wild-type thermal stability. SIGNIFICANCE: The tumor suppressor p53 is the most mutated gene in cancer, and yet no therapeutics to date directly target the mutated protein to rescue wild-type function. In this study, we identify the first allele-specific compound that selectively reacts with the cysteine p53 Y220C to rescue wild-type thermal stability and gene activation. See related commentary by Lane and Verma, p. 14. This article is highlighted in the In This Issue feature, p. 1.
