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

TIGAR expression resulted in down-regulation of glycolysis, reduction of intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species, and protection from apoptosis. Despite biological importance, its promoter has not yet been characterized. In this study, we characterized that transcription factor SP1 plays a pivotal role for basal activity of TIGAR promoter. By 5'RACE, the transcription start site was identified locating at 134 bp upstream of the translation initiation site. Different portions of 5'-flanking and 5'-untranslated regions were fused to a luciferase reporter gene to create reporter plasmids, and constructs were transiently transfected into HepG2, Bel-7402, and Smmc-7721 cell lines for luciferase analysis. A minimal region -56/-4 bearing a SP1-binding site was characterized and plays a vital role. Data from electrophoretic mobility shift assay and chromatin immunoprecipitation showed that SP1 can interact with the SP1-binding site within TIGAR promoter in vitro and in vivo. Conclusively, SPl is indispensable for basal activity of TIGAR promoter.
