Towards biological characters of interactions between transcription factors and their DNA targets in mammals.
Article in BMC genomics, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundIn post-genomic era, the study of transcriptional regulation is pivotal to decode genetic information. Transcription factors (TFs) are central proteins for transcriptional regulation, and interactions between TFs and their DNA targets (TFBSs) are important for downstream genes' expression. However, the lack of knowledge about interactions between TFs and TFBSs is still baffling people to investigate the mechanism of transcription.
resultsTo expand the knowledge about interactions between TFs and TFBSs, three biological features (sequence feature, structure feature, and evolution feature) were utilized to build TFBS identification models for studying binding preference between TFs and their DNA targets in mammals. Results show that each feature does have fairly well performance to capture TFBSs, and the hybrid model combined all three features is more robust for TFBS identification. Subsequently, correspondence between TFs and their TFBSs was investigated to explore interactions among them in mammals. Results indicate that TFs and TFBSs are reciprocal in sequence, structure, and evolution level.
conclusionsOur work demonstrates that, to some extent, TFs and TFBSs have developed a coevolutionary relationship in order to keep their physical binding and maintain their regulatory functions. In summary, our work will help understand transcriptional regulation and interpret binding mechanism between proteins and DNAs.
