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

Xenopus oocytes lack somatic linker histone H1 but contain an oocyte-specific variant, B4. The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) inducible mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) promoter was reconstituted in Xenopus oocytes to address the effects of histone H1. The expression of Xenopus H1o [corrected] (H1) via cytoplasmic mRNA injection resulted in H1 incorporation into in vivo assembled chromatin based on (i) the appearance of a chromatosome stop, (ii) the increased nucleosome repeat length (NRL), and (iii) H1-DNA binding assayed by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP). The H1 effect on the NRL was saturable and hence represents H1-binding to a specific site. A subsaturating level of H1 enhanced the hormone-dependent binding of GR to the glucocorticoid response elements (GREs) and the hormone-dependent MMTV transcription while it reduced the access to DNA as revealed by micrococcal nuclease (MNase) analysis. These H1 effects were lost at higher levels of H1. ChIP and MNase analysis revealed a hormone-dependent dissociation of H1 from the activated chromatin domain. The proposed mechanism of H1-induced GR binding is based on two effects: (i) a GR-induced asymmetric distribution of H1 in favor of inactive chromatin and (ii) an H1-induced reduction in DNA access. These effects results in increased concentration of free GR and, hence, in increased GR-GRE binding.
