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

A cell-free transcription system using nuclear extracts prepared from adenovirus type 5 (Ad5)-infected and mock-infected cells were utilized to study the E1A-mediated transactivation of transcription from the Ad5 early region 4 (E4) promoter. The transcription activity of Ad-infected cell extracts was several times higher than that of mock-infected cell extracts when the E4 wild-type (WT) promoter was used. The increased activity required expression of E1A proteins. However, the transcription activities of both cell extracts were not different when the mutant promoter containing only the E4 TATA box was used. The formation of a stable preinitiation complex at the E4 WT promoter was facilitated by expression of E1A, whereas it was not facilitated at the mutant promoter. The results suggested that the E1A proteins stimulated transcription from the E4 promoter by enhancing the formation of a stable preinitiation complex through the upstream elements, together with the TATA box.
