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.
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
The CCAAT/enhancer binding protein α (C/EBPα) is a transcription factor required for differentiation of myeloid progenitors. In acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells expressing the constitutively active FLT3-ITD receptor tyrosine kinase, MAP kinase-dependent phosphorylation of serine 21 (S21) inhibits the ability of C/EBPα to induce granulocytic differentiation. To assess whether this post-translational modification also modulates the activity of C/EBPα in BCR/ABL-expressing cells, we tested the biological effects of wild-type and mutant C/EBPα mimicking phosphorylated or non-phosphorylatable serine 21 (S21D and S21A, respectively) in K562 cells ectopically expressing tamoxifen-regulated C/EBPα-ER chimeric proteins. We show here that S21D C/EBPα-ER induced terminal granulocytic differentiation of K562 cells almost as well as wild-type C/EBPα-ER, while S21A C/EBPα-ER was less efficient. Furthermore, wild-type C/EBPα suppressed the proliferation and colony formation of K562 cells vigorously, while S21D and S21A C/EBPα mutants had more modest anti-proliferative effects. Both mutants were less effective than wild-type C/EBPα in suppressing endogenous E2F-dependent transactivation and bound less E2F-2 and/or E2F-3 proteins in anti-C/EBPα immunoprecipitates. Together, these findings suggest that mutation of S21 more than its phosphorylation inhibits the anti-proliferative effects of C/EBPα due to reduced interaction with or impaired regulation of the activity of E2F proteins. By contrast, phosphorylation of serine 21 appears to have a modest role in modulating the differentiation-inducing effects of C/EBPα in K562 cells.
