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

Chemical modifications to genomic DNA can expand and shape its coding potential. Cytosine methylation in particular has well-established roles in regulating gene expression and defining cellular identity. The discovery of TET family enzymes opened a major frontier beyond DNA methylation, revealing three oxidized forms of cytosine that could mediate DNA demethylation or encode independent epigenetic functions. Chemical biology has been instrumental in uncovering TET's intricate reaction mechanisms and scope of reactivity on a surprising variety of substrates. Moreover, innovative chemoenzymatic strategies have enabled sensitive detection of oxidized cytosine products in vitro and in vivo. We highlight key recent developments that demonstrate how chemical biology is advancing our understanding of the extended, dynamic epigenome.
