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

Although much has been learned about basal levels of immunoglobulin (Ig) transcription, the regulatory effects of cytokines and antigen (Ag) upon Ig expression in lymphocytes have not been fully characterized. We previously reported that Ag plus interleukin-5 (IL-5) caused increased steady-state Ig mRNA levels in Ag-specific cell lines. In this study, we have identified a region between -250 and -125 bp 5' of the Ig transcription start site that is necessary for the induction of increased mu mRNA levels by Ag plus IL-5. Mobility shift and UV cross-linking studies indicated that IL-5 plus Ag induced increased protein binding to this region. Furthermore, this sequence was found to be closely related to another A + T-rich sequence at -525 bp 5' of the transcription start site. Both sequences exhibited similar B-cell-specific and inducible protein binding. Our data suggest that treatment with IL-5 plus Ag induces several DNA-binding proteins, some of which may participate in increasing Ig transcription above basal levels by binding to sequences 5' of the octamer motif.
