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

Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (cdk5) activity is critical for development and function of the nervous system. Cdk5 activity is dependent on association with the regulators p35 and p39 whose expression is highly regulated in the developing nervous system.We have identified a small 200 bp fragment of the p39 promoter that is sufficient for cell type-specific expression in neuronal cells. Mutational analysis revealed that a cluster of predicted binding sites for Sp1, AP-1/CREB/ATF and E box-binding transcription factors is essential for full activity of the p39 promoter. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays revealed that Sp1 and Sp3 bound to sequences required for p39 promoter function and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays confirmed binding of these proteins to the endogenous p39 promoter. Furthermore, depletion of either Sp1 or Sp3 by siRNA reduced expression from the p39 promoter. Our data suggest that the ubiquitously expressed transcription factors Sp1 and Sp3 regulate transcription of the cdk5 regulator p39 in neuronal cells, possibly in cooperation with tissue-specific transcription factors.
