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

Seeds are central to plant life cycle and to human nutrition, functioning as the major supplier of human population energy intake. To understand better the roles of enzymic writers and erasers of the epigenetic marks, in particular, histone ubiquitylation and the corresponding histone modifiers, involved in control of seed development, we identified the otubain-like cysteine protease OTU1 as a histone deubiquitinase involved in transcriptional repression of the DA1 and DA2 genes known to regulate seed and organ size in Arabidopsis. Loss-of-function mutants of OTU1 accumulate H2B monoubiquitylation and such euchromatic marks as H3 trimethylation and hyperacetylation in the DA1 and DA2 chromatin. These data advance our knowledge about epigenetic regulation of the DA1 and DA2 genes by recognizing OTU1 as a member of a putative repressor complex that negatively regulates their transcription.
