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

Claspin plays multiple important roles in regulation of DNA replication as a mediator for the cellular response to replication stress, an integral replication fork factor that facilitates replication fork progression and a factor that promotes initiation by recruiting Cdc7 kinase. Here, we report a novel role of Claspin in growth recovery from serum starvation, which requires the activation of PI3 kinase (PI3K)-PDK1-Akt-mTOR pathways. In the absence of Claspin, cells do not proceed into S phase and eventually die partially in a ROS- and p53-dependent manner. Claspin directly interacts with PI3K and mTOR, and is required for activation of PI3K-PDK1-mTOR and for that of mTOR downstream factors, p70S6K and 4EBP1, but not for p38 MAPK cascade during the recovery from serum starvation. PDK1 physically interacts with Claspin, notably with CKBD, in a manner dependent on phosphorylation of the latter protein, and is required for interaction of mTOR with Claspin. Thus, Claspin plays a novel role as a key regulator for nutrition-induced proliferation/survival signaling by activating the mTOR pathway. The results also suggest a possibility that Claspin may serve as a common mediator that receives signals from different PI3K-related kinases and transmit them to specific downstream kinases.
