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

Eukaryotic promoters determine transcription start sites (TSSs), and are often enriched for transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs), which presumably play a major role in determining the location and activity of the TSS. In mammalian systems, proximal promoters are enriched for the CpG dinucleotide. The TFBSs that are enriched in proximal promoters (-200 bps to the TSS) are CCAAT, ETS, NRF1, SP1, E-Box, CRE, BoxA, and TATA. Only TATA occurs in a DNA strand dependent manner. In Drosophila, proximal promoters are AT rich and many putative TFBSs are enriched in proximal promoters. These sequences are different from those that occur in human promoters, except for TATA and E-Box, and many occur on a single strand of DNA giving directionality to the promoter. Thus, fundamental differences have arisen as promoters evolved in metazoans.
