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

It is unclear whether the core promoter is involved in developmental regulation. To address this question, we mutated the TATA box of the human gamma-globin gene, produced transgenic mice, and examined the effect of the mutation during the course of mouse development. In our test system, the gamma-globin gene is expressed at similar levels in the embryonic and adult erythroid cells. The TATA box mutation dramatically reduced expression of the gamma-globin gene in the adult but not in embryonic erythroid cells. In addition, the disruption of the gamma TATA box significantly reduced the recruitment of TATA box-binding protein (TBP) in the adult cells, but not in embryonic cells, suggesting that the recruitment of TBP to the gamma gene promoter is developmentally specific. Similarly, the recruitment of transcription factor II B and RNA polymerase II to the gamma promoter was affected in the adult but not in embryonic cells. The distinct effects of the TATA mutation in the embryonic and adult developmental stages suggest that the basal transcription apparatus can be recruited to a core promoter in a developmental stage-dependent manner. The TATA mutation resulted in a shift of transcription initiation site 6 bp or longer upstream to the cap site both in the embryonic and adult erythrocytes. We conclude that the TATA box determines the initiation site but not the efficiency of transcription of the gamma-globin gene.
