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

Interneurons comprise approximately one third of the total cortical neurons in the mammalian cerebral cortex. Studies have revealed many details in the generation of this cell type. However, the mechanism that defines interneuron-lineage specific gene expression is not well understood. Gene regulatory elements, e.g., promoters, enhancers, and trans-acting factors, are essential for the proper control of gene expression. Here, we report that a novel evolutionarily conserved cis-element in the second intron of the Notch1 locus plays an important role in regulating gene expression in interneuron progenitors. The spatiotemporal activity of the cis-element in the developing central nervous system (CNS) was determined by both transient reporter expression in the developing chick and a transgenic mouse model. Its activity is well correlated with neurogenesis in both the chick and mouse and restricted to neural progenitor cells in the ganglionic eminence that are fated to differentiate into GABAergic interneurons of the neocortex. We further demonstrate that the cis-element activity requires the binding motif for trans-acting factors Gsh1/Barx2/Brn3. Deletion of this binding motif abolishes reporter gene expression. Together, these data provide new insights into the regulatory mechanisms of interneuron development in the vertebrate CNS.
