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

Activation of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) by interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) is a fundamental step in the adaptive immune response to pathogens. Here, we show that reorganization of chromatin loop domains in the MHC is evident within the first 30 min of IFN-γ treatment of fibroblasts, and that further dynamic alterations occur up to 6 h. These very rapid changes occur at genomic sites which are occupied by CTCF and are close to IFN-γ-inducible MHC genes. Early responses to IFN-γ are thus initiated independently of CIITA, the master regulator of MHC class II genes and prepare the MHC for subsequent induction of transcription.
