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 promyelocytic leukemia zinc-finger transcription factor (PLZF) is essential for nearly all of the unique, innate-like functions and characteristics of NKT cells. It is not known, however, if the activity of PLZF is regulated by other factors. In this article, we show that the function of PLZF is completely dependent on the transcription factor Yin Yang 1 (YY1). Mouse NKT cells expressing wild-type levels of PLZF, but deficient for YY1, had developmental defects, lost their characteristic "preformed" mRNA for cytokines, and failed to produce cytokine protein upon primary activation. Immunoprecipitation experiments showed that YY1 and PLZF were coassociated. Taken together, these biochemical and genetic data show that the broadly expressed transcription factor, YY1, is required for the cell-specific "master regulator" functions of PLZF.
