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

Heat shock factor 1 (Hsf1) is a transcription factor that is often described as the master regulator of the heat shock response in all eukaryotes. However, due to its essentiality in yeast, Hsf1's contribution to the transcriptome under basal and heat shock conditions has never been directly determined. Using a chemical genetics approach that allowed rapid Hsf1 inactivation, my colleagues and I have recently shown that the bulk of the heat shock response is Hsf1 independent. Rather than inducing genes responsible for carrying out the various cellular processes required for adaptation to thermal stress, Hsf1 controls a dedicated set of chaperone protein genes devoted to restoring protein-folding homeostasis. The limited scope of the Hsf1 regulon belies its outsize importance in cellular fitness.
