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

The function of the transcriptional enhancer, Emu3', of the IgH locus of the channel catfish, Ictalurus punctatus, involves the interaction of E-protein and Oct family transcription factors. The E-proteins [class I basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) family] are encoded in mammals by three genes: E2A (of which E12/E47 are alternatively spliced products), HEB, and E2-2. An E2A homologue has been identified in a catfish B-cell cDNA library and contains regions homologous to the bHLH and activation domains of mammalian and other vertebrate E2A proteins. E2A message is widely expressed, being readily detected in catfish B cells, T cells, kidney, spleen, brain, and muscle. Its expression is lower than that previously observed for TF12/CFEB, the catfish homologue of HEB. E2A strongly activated transcription of a muE5 motif-dependent construct in catfish B cells, and also activated transcription from the core region of the catfish IgH enhancer (Emu3') in a manner dependent on the presence of the muE5 site. Catfish E2A, expressed in vitro, bound the muE5 motif present in the core region of Emu3'. These results document the conservation of structure and function in vertebrate E2A and suggest a potential role of E2A in driving expression of the IgH locus at the phylogenetic level of a teleost fish.
