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

We have identified two novel proteins that interact specifically with the C-terminal repression domain of Interferon Regulatory Factor-2 (IRF-2). These proteins, which we term IRF-2 binding proteins 1 and 2 (IRF-2BP1 and IRF-2BP2, the latter having two splicing isoforms, A and B), are nuclear proteins, and have the properties of IRF-2-dependent transcriptional co-repressors that can inhibit both enhancer-activated and basal transcription in a manner that is not dependent upon histone deacetylation. IRF-2BP1 and IRF-2BP2A/B contain an N-terminal zinc finger and a C-terminal RING finger domain of the C3HC4 subclass, but show no homology to other known transcriptional regulators; they therefore define a new family of co- repressor proteins. An alternatively spliced form of IRF-2 that lacks two amino acids (valines 177 and 178) in the central portion of the protein (IRF-2[S]) cannot bind to these co-repressors and cannot mediate repression despite having the same C- terminal repression domain as IRF-2, suggesting that the relative conformation of the DNA binding domain and the C-terminal region of IRF-2 is crucial for transcriptional repression.
