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

E2F1 is a potent inducer of apoptosis whereas its relative, E2F4, generally does not promote cell death. Other work from our laboratory has demonstrated that E2F1 can directly bind and represss the Mcl-1 promoter - contributing to E2F1-mediated apoptosis. Here we show that while E2F1 can repress the Mcl-1 promoter, other members of the E2F family (such as E2F4) cannot. Characterization of the Mcl-1 promoter demonstrates that the -143/+10 region is critical for E2F1-mediated downregulation. We demonstrate that the ability of E2F1 to repress the Mcl-1 promoter correlates with its ability to bind within the required -143/+10 region of this promoter. In contrast, E2F4 is unable to bind to the -143/+10 region of the Mcl-1 promoter. We propose that E2F4 is unable to repress the Mcl-1 promoter primarily as a result of insufficient binding to the essential regulatory region. This is the first evidence of DNA binding specificity among E2F family members that results in differential regulation of a naturally occurring promoter.
