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

objectiveRegulation of intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 in retinal endothelial cells is a promising druggable target for retinal vascular diseases. The ICAM-1-related (ICR) long non-coding RNA stabilizes ICAM-1 transcript, increasing protein expression. However, studies of ICR involvement in disease have been limited as the promoter is uncharacterized. To address this issue, we undertook a comprehensive in silico analysis of the human ICR gene promoter region.

resultsWe used genomic evolutionary rate profiling to identify a 115 base pair (bp) sequence within 500 bp upstream of the transcription start site of the annotated human ICR gene that was conserved across 25 eutherian genomes. A second constrained sequence upstream of the orthologous mouse gene (68 bp; conserved across 27 Eutherian genomes including human) was also discovered. Searching these elements identified 33 matrices predictive of binding sites for transcription factors known to be responsive to a broad range of pathological stimuli, including hypoxia, and metabolic and inflammatory proteins. Five phenotype-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the immediate vicinity of these elements included four SNPs (i.e. rs2569693, rs281439, rs281440 and rs11575074) predicted to impact binding motifs of transcription factors, and thus the expression of ICR and ICAM-1 genes, with potential to influence disease susceptibility. We verified that human retinal endothelial cells expressed ICR, and observed induction of expression by tumor necrosis factor-α.
