Differential contribution of cis and trans gene transcription regulatory mechanisms in amygdala and prefrontal cortex and modulation by social stress.
Article in Scientific reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
While both individual transcription factors and cis-acting sites have been studied in relation to psychiatric disorders, there is little knowledge of the relative contribution of trans-acting and cis-acting factors to gene transcription in the brain. Using an RNA-seq approach in mice bred from two evolutionary-distinct mice strains, we determined the contribution of cis and trans factors to gene expression in the prefrontal cortex and amygdala, two regions of the brain relevant to the stress response, and the contribution of cis and trans factors in the prefrontal cortex after Chronic Social Defeat (CSD) in mice. More genes were regulated by cis-regulatory factors in both brain regions, underlying the importance of cis-acting gene regulation in the brain. However, there was an increase in genes regulated by trans-regulatory mechanisms in the amygdala, compared to the prefrontal cortex. These genes were involved in synaptic functions, and were enriched for binding sites for transcription factors, including Egr1. CSD induced an increase in genes regulated by trans-regulatory mechanisms in the prefrontal cortex, and induced a pattern similar to the unstressed amygdala. Overall, we show brain site-specific patterns in cis and trans regulatory mechanisms, and show that these patterns can be modified by a psychological trigger.
