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

We conducted an integrated analysis of gene expression and chromatin structure of mouse uterus to understand the regulation of uterine-expressed genes on gestation day 4 (GD4) during the peri-implantation period. The genes expressed in the uterus showed a significant association (p < .0001) with the presence of the nucleosome-free region (open chromatin) in the 5'-untranslated region of the genes. The majority of these upstream open chromatins harbored a common class of regulatory elements known as upstream open reading frames. We also compared the gene expression profiles between the uterus and brain which showed that specific gene pairs were expressed in a correlated manner, either positively or negatively. In addition, specific ligand/receptor genes showed coordinated patterns of expression between the uterus and brain on GD4, and the level of expression of these ligand/receptors altered significantly in the brain during late pregnancy (GD15) compared with the peri-implantation period (GD4). Collectively, these results suggest that regulation of the uterine genes during the peri-implantation period is likely to have a functional link with the maternal brain in pregnant mice.
