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

By binding to a cis-acting element (oriP) in the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) genome, EBV nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA1) enables persistence and enhances transcription from EBV episomes. To investigate whether EBNA1 also directly affects cell gene transcription, we conditionally expressed a Flag-tagged dominant negative EBNA1 (FDNE) in an EBV immortalized lymphoblastoid cell line, in which the EBV genome is integrated into cell DNA. FDNE induction inhibited expression from an EBNA1-dependent oriP reporter plasmid by more than 90% in these cells but did not affect expression from integrated EBV or oriP reporter DNA. FDNE induction also did not alter expression of more than 1,800 cellular mRNAs. Lymphoblastoid cell line growth under a variety of conditions was unaffected by FDNE induction. Although Gal4-VP16 and EBNA1 strongly activated and coactivated a Gal4-VP16- and oriP-dependent promoter that was on an episome, only Gal4-VP16 activated the promoter when it was integrated into chromosomal DNA. These data indicate that EBNA1 is specifically deficient in activation of an integrated oriP enhancer and does not affect cell growth or gene expression through an interaction with cognate chromosomal DNA.
