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

Transgenic mice expressing a T-cell-specific dominant interfering allele (MEnT) of the c-Myb transcription factor have a pronounced block in CD4(-)CD8(-) (DN) development. In this study we show that differentiation of DN MEnT thymocytes is blocked due to the failure of cells to enter the cell cycle following beta-selection, the process by which productive rearrangement of the T-cell receptor (TCR) beta-chain permits maturation of cells into CD4(+)CD8(+) (DP) thymocytes. c-myb mRNA continues to be expressed in DN cells in mice lacking a functional pre-TCR signalling pathway, implying that its transcriptional regulation is independent of the signalling events regulating beta-selection. It is also expressed in the absence of cytokine signalling. However, we show that c-Myb protein is required for the function in beta-selection of its known upstream activator, the serine/threonine kinase Pim1: MEnT expression inhibits the cell cycle in Pim1 transgenic DN thymocytes and prevents Pim1-mediated rescue of a RAG1(-/-) developmental block. Super activation of c-Myb by Pim1 may therefore be required for beta-selection.
