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

The insect-specific transcription factor Broad-Complex (BR-C) is transcriptionally activated by the steroid 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) and regulates the expression of many target genes involved in insect growth and development. However, although the transcriptional regulation of BR-C proteins has been well studied, how BR-C is regulated at post-transcription and -translation levels is poorly understood. To this end, using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis, we identified residue Ser-186 as a phosphorylation site of BR-C in silkworm. Site-directed mutagenesis and treatment with specific kinase activators and inhibitors indicated that the Ser-186 residue in silkworm BR-C is phosphorylated by protein kinase A (PKA). Immunostaining assays disclosed that PKA-mediated phosphorylation of silkworm BR-C has no effect on its nuclear import. However, luciferase reporter analysis, electrophoretic mobility shift assays, and chromatin immunoprecipitation revealed that the PKA phosphorylation event suppresses the transcriptional activation of silkworm BR-C target genes and that this inhibition was caused by repression of BR-C binding to its DNA targets. Of note, both
