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

Mediator complex functions at the recruitment as well as the post-recruitment steps of transcription. Here we provide evidence for a novel role of Mediator in termination of transcription. Mediator subunit Srb5/Med18 cross-links to the 5' and 3' ends of INO1 and CHA1. In srb5(-) cells, recruitment of TATA-binding protein (TBP) and transcription factor IIB (TFIIB) onto the promoter of these genes remained unaffected, but cross-linking of the cleavage-polyadenylation factors Rna15 and Pta1 toward the 3' end of genes was compromised. In these cells, RNA polymerase II accumulated near the 3' end of genes and beyond. Transcription run-on analysis confirmed a transcription readthrough phenotype in the absence of Srb5/Med18. These results strongly suggest that Mediator subunit Srb5/Med18 is required for proper termination of transcription of a subset of genes in budding yeast.
