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

A transcriptional corepressor, Xenopus furry (Xfurry), is expressed in the chordamesodermal region and induces secondary dorsal axes when overexpressed on the ventral side of the embryo. The N-terminal furry domain functions as a repressor, and the C-terminal leucine zipper (LZ) motifs /coiled-coil structure, found only in vertebrate homologs, contributes to the nuclear localization. The engrailed repressor (enR)+LZ repressor construct, which has properties similar to Xfurry, induced several chordamesodermal genes. In contrast, an antisense morpholino oligonucleotide, Xfurry-MO, and the activating construct, herpes simplex virus protein (VP16)+LZ, had effects opposite those of Xfurry overexpression. Because blocking protein synthesis with cycloheximide superinduced several Xfurry transcriptional targets, and because expression of enR+LZ induced such genes under cycloheximide treatment, we analyzed the role of an Xfurry transcriptional target, microRNA miR-15. Cycloheximide reduced the expression of primary miR-15 (pri-miR-15), whereas miR-15 reduced the expression of genes superinduced by cycloheximide treatment. These results show that Xfurry regulates chordamesodermal genes by contributing to repression of pretranscriptional gene silencing by miR-15.
