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

Precise control of lineage-specific gene expression in the neural stem/progenitor cells is crucial for generation of the diversity of neuronal and glial cell types in the central nervous system (CNS). The mechanism underlying such gene regulation, however, is not fully elucidated. Here, we report that a 377 bp evolutionarily conserved DNA fragment (CR5), located approximately 32 kbp upstream of Olig2 transcription start site, acts as a cis-regulator for gene expression in the development of the neonatal forebrain. CR5 is active in a time-specific and brain region-restricted manner. CR5 activity is not detected in the embryonic stage, but it is exclusively in a subset of Sox5+ cells in the neonatal ventral forebrain. Furthermore, we show that Sox5 binding motif in CR5 is important for this cell-specific gene regulatory activity; mutation of Sox5 binding motif in CR5 alters reporter gene expression with different cellular composition. Together, our study provides new insights into the regulation of cell-specific gene expression during CNS development.
