Defining baseline epigenetic landscapes in the rat liver.
Article in Epigenomics, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
aimCharacterization of the hepatic epigenome following exposure to chemicals and therapeutic drugs provides novel insights into toxicological and pharmacological mechanisms, however appreciation of genome-wide inter- and intra-strain baseline epigenetic variation, particularly in under-characterized species such as the rat is limited. Material & methods: To enhance the utility of epigenomic endpoints safety assessment, we map both DNA modifications (5-methyl-cytosine and 5-hydroxymethyl-cytosine) and enhancer related chromatin marks (H3K4me1 and H3K27ac) across multiple male and female rat livers for two important outbred laboratory rat strains (Sprague-Dawley and Wistar). Results & conclusion: Integration of DNA modification, enhancer chromatin marks and gene expression profiles reveals clear gender-specific chromatin states at genes which exhibit gender-specific transcription. Taken together this work provides a valuable baseline liver epigenome resource for rat strains that are commonly used in chemical and pharmaceutical safety assessment.
