DNA methylation and functional characterization of the XIST gene during
Article in Epigenetics, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
XIST, in association with the shorter ncRNA RepA, are essential for the initiation of X chromosome inactivation (XCI) in mice. The molecular mechanisms controlling XIST and RepA expression are well characterized in that specie. However, little is known in livestock. We aimed to characterize the DNA methylation status along the 5' portion of XIST and to characterize its transcriptional profile during early development in cattle. Three genomic regions of XIST named here as promoter, RepA and DMR1 had their DNA methylation status characterized in gametes and embryos. Expression profile of XIST was evaluated, including sense and antisense transcription. Oocytes showed higher levels of methylation than spermatozoa that was demethylated. DMR1 was hypermethylated throughout oogenesis. At the 8-16-cell embryo stage DMR1 was completed demethylated. Interestingly, RepA gain methylation during oocyte maturation and was demethylated at the blastocyst stage, later than DMR1. These results suggest that DMR1 and RepA are transient differentially methylated regions in cattle. XIST RNA was detected in matured oocytes and in single cells from the 2-cell to the morula stage, confirming the presence of maternal and embryonic transcripts. Sense and antisense transcripts were detected along the XIST in blastocyst.
