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 porcine sarcomeric fast 2a myosin heavy chain (MyHC) gene was previously found to require a region extending 3' from the transcriptional start site for high levels of expression. Here we established the existence of two novel opposing regulatory domains in intron 2. A positive regulatory element, defined to a 75bp region, resembles a TATA-less intronic promoter, with a consensus transcription initiation element. It can up-regulate its endogenous or a heterologous muscle promoter in a position specific manner, and on its own drive a reporter gene. In tandem with it is a dominant negative regulatory element, localised to a 81bp region, which can down-regulate its native gene and a heterologous muscle promoter. Bandshift and DNase I footprinting assays demonstrated that specific nuclear factors bound to both regulatory elements are distinctly different. Both elements appear to have no counterpart in intron 2 of the porcine fast 2x and 2b MyHC genes. Taken together, we demonstrate for the first time that a 5'-end terminal intron of a sarcomeric MyHC gene contains two critical regulatory domains, which may be involved in the complexity of temporo-spatial expression.
