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

BOB.1/OBF.1 is a lymphocyte-restricted transcriptional coactivator. It binds together with the Oct1 and Oct2 transcription factors to DNA and enhances their transactivation potential. Mice deficient for the transcriptional coactivator BOB.1/OBF.1 show several defects in differentiation, function and signaling of B cells. In search of BOB.1/OBF.1 regulated genes we identified Btk--a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase-as a direct target of BOB.1/OBF.1. Analyses of the human as well as murine Btk promoters revealed a non-consensus octamer site close to the start site of transcription. Here we show that Oct proteins together with BOB.1/OBF.1 are able to form ternary complexes on these sites in vitro and in vivo. This in turn leads to the induction of Btk promoter activity in synergism with the transcription factor PU.1. Btk, like BOB.1/OBF.1, plays a critical role in B cell development and B cell receptor signalling. Therefore the down-regulation of Btk expression in BOB.1/OBF.1-deficient B cells could be related to the functional and developmental defects observed in BOB.1/OBF.1-deficient mice.
