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

Oct4-mediated reprogramming has recently become a novel tool for the generation of various cell types from differentiated somatic cells. Although molecular mechanisms underlying this process are unknown, it is well documented that cells over-expressing Oct4 undergo transition from differentiated state into plastic state. This transition is associated with the acquisition of stem cells properties leading to epigenetically "open" state that is permissive to cell fate switch upon external stimuli. In order to contribute to our understanding of molecular mechanisms driving this process, we characterised human fibroblasts over-expressing Oct4 and performed comprehensive small-RNAseq analysis. Our analyses revealed new interesting aspects of Oct4-mediated cell plasticity induction. Cells over-expressing Oct4 lose their cell identity demonstrated by down-regulation of fibroblast-specific genes and up-regulation of epithelial genes. Interestingly, this process is associated with microRNA expression profile that is similar to microRNA profiles typically found in pluripotent stem cells. We also provide extensive network of microRNA families and clusters allowing us to precisely determine the miRNAome associated with the acquisition of Oct4-induced transient plastic state. Our data expands current knowledge of microRNA and their implications in cell fate alterations and contributing to understanding molecular mechanisms underlying it.
