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 adenovirus E1A proteins are essential for the normal temporal activation of transcription from every other adenoviral early promoter. High-level E1A expression in the absence of viral infection would facilitate biochemical studies of E1A-mediated transactivation. Toward this end, we introduced the adenovirus type 2 E1A gene under the control of the murine mammary tumor virus promoter into HeLa cells. Uninduced cells expressed little or no detectable E1A mRNA. Upon induction, mRNA levels accumulated to about 50% of the level observed in 293 cells. The level of E1A expression in these cells could be controlled by varying the concentration of the inducing glucocorticoid. Under these conditions of varying E1A concentrations, it was observed that activation of the E2, E3, and E4 promoters of H5dl312 initiated at the same E1A concentration and that transcription from each promoter increased as the E1A concentration increased. These results indicate that E1A-mediated transactivation is proportional to the concentration of E1A protein. E1A-dependent transcriptional stimulation of the E4 promoter was reproduced in an in vitro transcription system, demonstrating that expression of only the E1A proteins was sufficient to increase the transcriptional activity of nuclear extracts.
