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

TrxG and PcG complexes play key roles in the epigenetic regulation of development through H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 modification at specific sites throughout the human genome, but how these sites are selected is poorly understood. We find that in pluripotent cells, clustered CpG-islands at genes predict occupancy of H3K4me3 and H3K27me3, and these "bivalent" chromatin domains precisely span the boundaries of CpG-island clusters. These relationships are specific to pluripotent stem cells and are not retained at H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 sites unique to differentiated cells. We show that putative transcripts from clustered CpG-islands predict stem-loop structures characteristic of those bound by PcG complexes, consistent with the possibility that RNA facilitates PcG recruitment or maintenance at these sites. These studies suggest that CpG-island structure plays a fundamental role in establishing developmentally important chromatin structures in the pluripotent genome, and a subordinate role in establishing TrxG/PcG chromatin structure at sites unique to differentiated cells.
