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

E2F is a cellular transcription factor that binds to the adenovirus (Ad) E1A enhancer and E2aE promoter regions, to the cellular c-myc P2 and dihydrofolate reductase promoters, and to other viral and cellular regulatory regions. The binding activity of E2F to the Ad E2aE promoter is dramatically increased during an adenovirus infection (termed E2F induction). E2F induction is dependent on the expression of the 150 amino acid E4-ORF6/7 protein which forms a direct, physical complex with E2F to mediate the cooperative and stable binding of E2F to inverted sites in the E2aE promoter. Using in vitro DNA binding assays to measure the formation of the infection-specific complexes, we have defined the minimal domain of the E4-ORF6/7 protein, the C-terminal 70 amino acids, required to complex with E2F and stabilize its binding at the E2aE promoter. The ability of mutant E4-ORF6/7 proteins to form the stable E2F-E2aE promoter complex in vitro correlated well with their ability to trans-activate E2 transcription in vivo. These observations support a model in which the E4-ORF6/7 protein binds to E2F to induce the cooperative binding of two E2F molecules to the E2aE promoter thereby activating E2 transcription.
