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

C/EBP family members contribute to the induction of the interleukin-12 p40 gene and the genes encoding several other mediators of inflammation. Here, we show by chromatin immunoprecipitation that C/EBPbeta binds the p40 promoter following lipopolysaccharide stimulation of peritoneal macrophages. However, three modes of C/EBPbeta regulation reported in other cell types were not detected, including alternative translation initiation, nuclear translocation, and increased DNA binding following posttranslational modification. In contrast, C/EBPbeta concentrations greatly increased following stimulation via MAP kinase-dependent induction of C/EBPbeta gene transcription. Increased C/EBPbeta concentrations were unimportant for p40 induction, however, as transcription of the p40 gene initiated before C/EBPbeta concentrations increased. Furthermore, disruption of C/EBPbeta upregulation by a MAP kinase inhibitor only slightly diminished p40 induction. Phosphopeptide mapping revealed that endogenous C/EBPbeta in macrophages is phosphorylated on only a single tryptic peptide containing 14 potential phosphoacceptors. This peptide was constitutively phosphorylated in primary and transformed macrophages, in contrast to its inducible phosphorylation in other cell types in response to Ras and growth hormone signaling. Altered-specificity experiments supported the hypothesis that C/EBPbeta activity in macrophages does not require an inducible posttranslational modification. These findings suggest that, although C/EBPbeta contributes to the induction of numerous proinflammatory genes, it is fully active in unstimulated macrophages and poised to stimulate transcription in conjunction with other factors whose activities are induced.
