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

Transcription from the adenovirus major late promoter (MLP) is greatly stimulated during lytic infection, after replication of the viral DNA has started. This replication-dependent activation has previously been shown to be mediated by a positive regulatory cellular protein(s). Binding of this factor(s) to sequence elements (DE1 and DE2), located between positions +76 and +124, with respect to the MLP transcriptional startsite, is detected only after the onset of DNA replication. Using a cell-free transcription system which mimics the late phase induction of the MLP and DNA binding assays, we now present evidence showing that maximal stimulation also depends on the MLP upstream element (UE), without involving increased DNA binding activity of the corresponding factor (UEF) during the lytic cycle. Our results indicate that the upstream and downstream elements act cooperatively on transcription efficiency, although no direct interactions between the cognate factors could be demonstrated. These observations strongly suggest that the elevated rate of transcription originating at the MLP startsite, late in infection, results from the simultaneous action of factors bound at the upstream and downstream elements onto a common target within the basal transcription machinery.
