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

Human U1 and U6 snRNA genes are transcribed by RNA polymerases II and III, respectively. While the p53 tumor suppressor protein is a general repressor of RNA polymerase III transcription, whether p53 regulates snRNA gene transcription by RNA polymerase II is uncertain. The data presented herein indicate that p53 is an effective repressor of snRNA gene transcription by both polymerases. Both U1 and U6 transcription in vitro is repressed by recombinant p53, and endogenous p53 occupancy at these promoters is stimulated by UV light. In response to UV light, U1 and U6 transcription is strongly repressed. Human U1 genes, but not U6 genes, contain a high-affinity p53 response element located within the core promoter region. Nonetheless, this element is not required for p53 repression and mutant p53 molecules that do not bind DNA can maintain repression, suggesting a reliance on protein interactions for p53 promoter recruitment. Recruitment may be mediated by the general transcription factors TATA-box binding protein and snRNA-activating protein complex, which interact well with p53 and function for both RNA polymerase II and III transcription.
