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 proneural protein neurogenin (XNGNR1) drives differentiation of primary neurons in combination with the cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk) inhibitor Xic1. Differentiation is inhibited by Notch signalling, resulting in a scattered neuronal distribution. Here we show that Notch signalling regulates the level of Xic1 transcription, yet this does not correlate with Notch's ability to perturb the cell cycle. Instead, Notch may regulate Xic1 levels to control its differentiation function directly, which is required in parallel with XNGNR1 to promote primary neurogenesis. Indeed, Notch-mediated repression of both XNGNR1 and Xic1 must be relieved for neuronal differentiation to occur. Interestingly, although Xic1 is required for XNGNR1-mediated neurogenesis, it is not required for XNGNR1-mediated upregulation of Delta, allowing establishment of the negative feedback loop involved in lateral inhibition. Therefore, Notch targets Cdk inhibitor expression to regulate differentiation of primary neurons, and its effects on the cell cycle may be of secondary importance.
