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

OCT4, a member of the POU family of gene products, is an octamer motif-binding transcription factor. As it is known to play a crucial role in cancer processes including proliferation, invasion, and chemoradioresistance, it is important to identify the direct targets of OCT4 in living cancer cells. Here, chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing (ChIP-seq) was used to identify OCT4 binding sites in glioblastoma cancer cells. The results showed that 5438 OCT4 binding sites were localized in the glioblastoma cancer genome and that these sites contained a consensus sequence TTTkswTw (k=T or G, s=C or G, w=A or T), which occurred 3931 times in 2312 OCT4 binding regions. Furthermore, binding motifs of some other transcription factors were identified in OCT4 binding regions. Our results provide a valuable dataset for understanding gene regulation mechanisms underlying the function of OCT4 in glioblastoma cancer.
