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

Interferon Regulatory Factor (IRF)-1 is a multifunctional transcription factor, involved in cell growth regulation, pathogen response and immune activation. To identify novel gene targets that may contribute to IRF-1 mediated activities, RNA fingerprinting was performed using NIH3T3 cells that inducibly express a hybrid form of IRF-1 under tetracycline regulated control. Secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (SLPI) - a regulator of inflammation and an inhibitor of the LPS response - was identified as a gene repressed after doxycycline induced IRF-1 expression. Preliminary analysis of the human SLPI promoter identified an ISRE-like site located within the -221 to -200 region to which IRF-1 binds and a second, putative IRF-1 binding site upstream of the TATA box. Furthermore, co-transfection studies demonstrated that SLPI expression was inhibited by IRF-1 co-expression. The identification of SLPI as a target of IRF-1 regulation reveals a unique involvement of IRF-1 in repression of gene transcription and assigns a novel role for IRF-1 in inflammation.
