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 objective of this work was to identify, in the context of chromosomally integrated DNA, the contribution of defined transcription factor binding motifs to the function of a complex retrovirus enhancer in hematopoietic cells in vivo. Repopulating murine hematopoietic cells were transduced with equal gene dosages of replication-incompetent retrovirus vectors encoding enhanced green fluorescent protein. Enhancer sequences were derived from mouse spleen focus-forming virus. Destruction of GC-rich sites representing overlapping targets for SP1 or EGR1 uniformly attenuated gene expression (approximately 25 to 70% of wild-type levels) in all hematopoietic lineages, as shown by multicolor flow cytometry of peripheral blood and bone marrow cells at various time points posttransplantation. In contrast, a point mutation within a dual ETS/GATA motif that abolished transactivation by ETS factors but not by GATA-1 slightly increased activity in erythroid cells and significantly attenuated enhancer function in T lymphocytes. This study shows that controlled gene transfer in transplantable hematopoietic cells allows a functional analysis of distinct cis elements within a complex retrovirus enhancer, as required for the characterization and engineering of various cellular and viral regulatory sequences in basic research and gene therapy.
