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
Kruppel-like factor 4 (Klf4) is a zinc finger transcriptionfactor and plays crucial roles in Xenopus embryogenesis. However, its regulation during embryogenesis is stillunclear. Here, we report that Tcf7l1, a key downstream transducerof the Wnt signaling pathway, could promote Klf4 transcription and stimulate Klf4 promoter activity in early Xenopus embryos. Furthermore, cycloheximide treatmentshowed a direct effect on Klf4 transcriptionfacilitated by Tcf7l1. Moreover, the dominant negative form of Tcf7l1(dnTcf7l1), which lacks N-terminusof the β-catenin binding motif, could still activate Klf4 transcription, suggesting that thisregulation is Wnt/β-catenin independent. Taken together, ourresults demonstrate that Tcf7l1 lies upstream of Klf4 to maintainits expression level during Xenopus embryogenesis.
