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

Early growth response 1 (EGR1) is a transcription factor and regulates cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. The expression of EGR1 is rapidly induced in response to several stimuli, and it activates the expression of downstream target genes involved in signaling cascades. EGR1 gene is also known to be transcribed in early G1 phase. However, the regulation of EGR1 transcription in early G1 phase is not clarified well. Here we found that CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF), a chromatin binding protein, is required to transcribe EGR1 gene at the onset of early G1 phase. We found that CTCF mediated the formation of higher-order chromatin structures among CTCF binding sites located in the EGR1 locus. Disruption of the CTCF-dependent higher-order chromatin structure using nuclease-dead Cas9 (dCas9)-mediated interference reduced the EGR1 transcription in early G1 phase. Collectively, we propose that CTCF has functional roles for the temporal expression of EGR1 in early G1 phase through regulation of higher-order chromatin structure organization.
