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

Six2 (Sine oculis homeobox 2), a homeodomain transcription factor, plays a crucial role in the regulation of mammalian nephrogenesis. It is also implicated in numerous biological functions, such as cell proliferation, apoptosis, and migration. However, the underlying regulatory mechanisms of Six2 remain largely unknown. In this study, we predicted that CRX, GATA1, HOXD8, and POU2F2 might target, binding to the promoter region of Six2 (~2000 bp) by bioinformatics analysis. Among the four genes, the predicted binding sequence of GATA1 is most highly conserved across species. Luciferase assays demonstrated that knockdown of GATA1 decreased the activity of Six2 promoter and qPCR result of Six2 expression was in consistent with this in 293T cells. Mutation of GATA1 binding sites of mSix2 promoter led to obvious decrease of the mSix2 promoter activity. Furthermore, knockdown of GATA1 decreased Six2 expression in mk3 cells and increased cell apoptosis of mk3 and mk4 compared with corresponding control cells, but this up-regulation can be rescued by Six2 overexpression. Our findings indicated that GATA1 may be a potential regulator of Six2-maintained population of nephron progenitor cells.
