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

We aimed to examine the physical interaction between CtBPs and KLF4 and the potential importance of this interaction. Co-immunoprecipitation indicated that CtBP1 indeed interacted with KLF4. This was supported by the co-localization of both KLF4 and CtBP1 in the promoter regions of KLF4 downstream target genes. In addition, overexpression of CtBP1 significantly decreased KLF4-mediated transcriptional activation in both an artificial (pGL5) and genuine (IAP and Keratin-4) reporter system. Mutations in the potential CtBP binding motif in KLF4 were accompanied by loss of the inhibitory effect of CtBP1 in the reporter assay and of the physical interaction with CtBP1. Overall, our results suggest that CtBPs attenuate KLF4-mediated transcriptional activation through the physical interaction with KLF4.
