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 genes for mitoribosomal protein S12 (Mrps12) and mitochondrial seryl-tRNA ligase (Sarsm and Sars2) are oppositely transcribed from a conserved promoter region of <200 bp in both human and mouse. Using a dual reporter vector we identified an array of 4 CCAAT box elements required for efficient transcription of the two genes in cultured mouse 3T3 cells, and for enforcing directionality in favour of Mrps12. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) and in vivo footprinting confirmed the importance of these promoter elements as sites of protein-binding, and EMSA supershift and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays identified NF-Y as the key transcription factor involved, revealing a common pattern of protein-DNA interactions in all tissues tested (liver, brain, heart, kidney and 3T3 cells). The inherently bidirectional activity of NF-Y makes it an especially suitable factor to govern promoters of this class, whose expression is linked to cell proliferation.
