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

In the present study, we isolated pCMAH house-keeping promoter regions (Ph), which are responsible for transcriptional regulation and which are located upstream of the alternative transcript pcmah-2. Luciferase reporter assays using serial construction of each deleted promoter demonstrated that the Ph promoter was highly active in pig-derived kidney PK15. Ph promoter of pcmah lacked a TATA box, but contained three putative Sp1 binding sites. Mutations of these Sp1 binding sites always resulted in the reduction of luciferase activities in Ph-334. In addition, treatment with mithramycin A (25-100 nM) decreased the luciferase activities of the Ph promoters and NeuGc expression in a dose-dependent manner. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay analysis revealed that the probes containing each Sp1 binding site bound to Sp1. Taken together, the results indicate that Sp1 bind to their putative binding sites on the Ph promoter regions of pcmah and positively regulate the promoter activity in pig kidney cells. Interspecies comparison of 5'UTRs and 5'flanking regions shows high homology between pig and cattle, and Sp1 binding sites existing in genomic regions corresponding Ph region are evolutionally conserved.
