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 Melanoma-associated Antigen gene family (MAGE) generally encodes for tumour antigens. We had identified that one of the MAGE gene members, Mageb16 was highly expressed in undifferentiated murine embryonic stem cells (ESCs). While the role of Mageb16 in stemness and differentiation of pluripotent stem cells is completely unknown, here, in our current study, we have demonstrated that Mageb16 (41 kDa) is distributed in cytosol and/or in surface membrane in undifferentiated ESCs. A transcriptome study performed at  differentiated short hairpin RNA (shRNA)-mediated Mageb16 knockdown (KD) ESCs and scrambled control (SCR) ESCs until a period of 22 days, revealed that Mageb16 KD ESCs mainly differentiated towards cells expressing mesodermal and cardiovascular lineage - gene markers. Gene markers of other mesoderm-oriented biological processes such as adipogenesis, osteogenesis, limb morphogenesis and spermatogenesis were also significantly enriched in the differentiated Mageb16 KD ESCs. The expression levels of contractile genes were higher in differentiated Mageb16 KD ESCs when compared to differentiated SCR and wild ESCs, suggesting a higher cardiomyogenic potential of Mageb16 depleted ESCs. Further analysis indicates  that regulative epigenetic networks and nucleocytoplasmic modifications induced by the depletion of Mageb16, may play a probable role in differentiation.
