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 dynamic packaging of DNA into chromatin is a fundamental step in the control of diverse nuclear processes. Whereas certain transcription factors and chromosomal components promote the formation of higher-order chromatin loops, the co-regulator machinery mediating loop assembly and disassembly is unknown. Using mice bearing a hypomorphic allele of the BRG1 chromatin remodeler, we demonstrate that the Brg1 mutation abrogated a cell type-specific loop between the beta-globin locus control region and the downstream beta major promoter, despite trans-acting factor occupancy at both sites. By contrast, distinct loops were insensitive to the Brg1 mutation. Molecular analysis with a conditional allele of GATA-1, a key regulator of hematopoiesis, in a novel cell-based system provided additional evidence that BRG1 functions early in chromatin domain activation to mediate looping. Although the paradigm in which chromatin remodelers induce nucleosome structural transitions is well established, our results demonstrating an essential role of BRG1 in the genesis of specific chromatin loops expands the repertoire of their functions.
