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

During embryonic development, DNA binding proteins help specify and restrict the fates of pluripotent stem cells. In the developing kidney, Pax2 proteins are among the earliest markers for the renal epithelial cell lineage, with expression in the mesenchyme and in proliferating epithelia. The Pax2 protein is essential for interpreting inductive signals emanating from the ureteric bud such that the kidney mesenchyme can convert to epithelia. The biochemistry of Pax protein function is being studied in a variety of model systems. Through interactions with the adaptor Pax transactivation-domain interacting protein (PTIP), Pax proteins can recruit members of the Trithorax family of histone methyltransferases to imprint activating epigenetic marks on chromatin. However, interactions with the corepressor Groucho-related gene-4 (Grg4) protein can inhibit activation and instead recruit Polycomb repressor complexes to promote target-gene silencing. We present a model whereby the regulated interactions of Pax proteins with available cofactor-mediated activation or gene silencing at different stages of development. The implications for establishing and maintaining the epigenome are discussed.
