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 virus- and interferon-inducible human MxA (IFI-78k) gene is a homologue of the murine influenza resistance gene Mx1. Three overlapping human cosmid clones covering most of the gene including its promoter region were isolated. Sequencing the 5' MxA cDNA derived by RT-PCR (reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction) confirmed the most 5' putative transcriptional start site. The MxA promoter does not contain a TATA or CCAAT box but has three Interferon Stimulated Response Element (ISRE) motifs. Strong induction with type I interferons was demonstrated with a fragment containing only two ISREs in human L132 cells. This induced expression was not adversely affected by 2-aminopurine. However, the promoter showed constitutive expression in transiently or stably transfected murine LM cells.
