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.
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
The E2F1 transcription factor is an essential mediator of p53-dependent and p53-independent apoptosis as part of an anti-tumour safeguard mechanism. In this study, a functional so-called technical knockout (TKO) approach was applied to Saos-2ERE2F1 cells that conditionally activate E2F1 by the addition of 4-hydroxytamoxifen to search for p53-independent pro-apoptotic E2F1 targets. The approach was based on random inactivation of genes after retroviral transfer of an antisense cDNA library enriched of E2F1-induced genes, followed by the selection of Saos-2ERE2F1 cells that survive in the presence of the apoptotic stimulus. We identified 13 novel E2F1 target genes encoding proteins of known cellular function, including apoptosis and RNA binding. FACS analysis revealed that E2F1-induced apoptosis was significantly attenuated in cell clones containing the antisense cDNA fragments of these genes, demonstrating their participation in E2F1 death pathways. Moreover, inactivation of the target genes resulted in a clear increase of cell viability (>80%) in response to E2F1 activation compared with controls (approximately 30%). Four genes showed an increase in expression intensity in the presence of cycloheximide, suggesting a direct effect of E2F1 on gene transcription, whereas one gene was identified as an indirect target. Our data provide new insight in the regulation of E2F1-induced apoptosis.
