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

X-chromosome inactivation (XCI) in female mammals is a dramatic example of epigenetic gene regulation, which entails the silencing of an entire chromosome through a wide range of mechanisms involving noncoding RNAs, chromatin-modifications, and DNA-methylation. While XCI is associated with the differentiated cell state, it is reversed by X-chromosome reactivation (XCR) ex vivo in pluripotent stem cells and in vivo in the early mouse embryo and the germline. Critical in the regulation of XCI vs. XCR is the X-inactivation center, a multigene locus on the X-chromosome harboring several long noncoding RNA genes including, most prominently, Xist and Tsix. These genes, which sit at the top of the XCI hierarchy, are by themselves controlled by pluripotency factors, coupling XCR with the naïve pluripotent stem cell state. In this point-of-view article we review the latest findings regarding this intricate relationship between cell differentiation state and epigenetic control of the X-chromosome. In particular, we discuss the emerging picture of complex multifactorial regulatory mechanisms, ensuring both a fine-tuned and robust X-reactivation process.
