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

objectivesOCT4 is a transcription factor required for pluripotency during early embryogenesis and the maintenance of identity of embryonic stem cells and pluripotent cells. Therefore, the effective expression regulation of this gene is highly critical. UTR regions are of great significance to gene regulation. In this study, we aimed to investigate the potential regulatory role played by 5´UTR and 3´UTR of the Oct4 gene in mouse BMSC and P19 cells. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe Oct4 5´UTR and 3´UTR sequences were cloned into pGL3 luciferase plasmid which led to the generation of pGL3 5´-UTR, pGL3 5´&3´-UTRs and pGL3 3´-UTR vectors. The vectors were transfected into BMSC and P19 cells followed by luciferase assay.

resultsThe assay of luciferase expression exhibited a direct link between the presence of Oct4 3´- UTR and the decrease of luciferase count in both cell lines; whereas 5´UTR indicated diverse behaviors in two cells. This discrepancy could be explained in view of the difference of cellular contexts in which the Oct4 UTRs act.

conclusionThis study sheds some light on the role of UTR regions of mouse Oct4 in regulating post-transcriptional gene expression in pluripotent cells. These data represent potential to be used for the development of novel therapeutic approaches for a variety of malignancies.
