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

Advanced heterologous transcription control systems for adjusting desired transgene expression are essential for gene function assignments, drug discovery, manufacturing of difficult to produce protein pharmaceuticals and precise dosing of gene-based therapeutic interventions. Conversion of the Streptomyces albus heat shock response regulator (RheA) into an artificial eukaryotic transcription factor resulted in a vertebrate thermosensor (CTA; cold-inducible transactivator), which is able to adjust transcription initiation from chimeric target promoters (P(CTA)) in a low-temperature- inducible manner. Evaluation of the temperature-dependent CTA-P(CTA) interaction using a tailored ELISA-like cell-free assay correlated increased affinity of CTA for P(CTA) with temperature downshift. The temperature-inducible gene regulation (TIGR) system enabled tight repression in the chicken bursal B-cell line DT40 at 41 degrees C as well as precise titration of model product proteins up to maximum expression at or below 37 degrees C. Implantation of microencapsulated DT40 cells engineered for TIGR-controlled expression of the human vascular endothelial growth factor A (hVEGF121) provided low-temperature-induced VEGF-mediated vascularization in chicken embryos.
