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 tissue-specific developmental regulation of the alpha, beta, gamma and delta T-cell antigen receptor (TCR) genes is controlled by the corresponding distinct enhancers and their enhancer-binding proteins. To find a common TCR regulatory element, we have studied the ability of the newly described enhancer-binding protein Gata3 to bind to the sequence motif (A/T)GATA(G/A) shared between enhancer elements of all four TCR genes. Gata3 was shown in the chicken to be an enhancer-binding protein containing a zinc-finger domain. We have isolated a full-length human Gata3 cDNA and characterized its role in TCR gene regulation. Northern blot analysis showed that the Gata3 mRNA is present in T-cell, but not B-cell, macrophage or HeLa cell lines. The in vitro transcribed and translated Gata3 cDNA product bound specifically to the enhancer elements of at least three TCR genes containing the above consensus sequence. This binding specificity was consistent with the in vivo activity of the TCR enhancer-binding element in transient transfection assays. Hence, the Gata3 protein, together with other T-cell-specific enhancer-binding proteins, may form the basis of tissue-specific expression of the TCR genes.
