IFN-γ suppresses permissive chromatin remodeling in the regulatory region of the Il4 gene.
Article in Cytokine, 2013. 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
In order to develop the most effective T helper type-1 (Th1) immunity, naïve CD4(+) T cells must acquire the capacity to express IFN-γ while silencing T helper type-2 (Th2) cytokine-producing potential. An Il4 gene silencer has been described. However, it is not completely understood how the silencer works. In this study, we examine whether IFN-γ can suppress permissive chromatin remodeling of regulatory region of the Il4 gene. We demonstrate that IFN-γ suppresses H3K4 dimethylation at the intronic enhancer region of the Il4 gene. The IFN-γ-mediated suppression of permissive chromatin remodeling is IFN-γ receptor-, STAT1-, and T-bet-dependent. Our study reveals a novel mechanism of how Th1 cells silence the Il4 gene.
