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

Recently, a unique form of X chromosome dosage compensation has been demonstrated in human preimplantation embryos, which happens through the dampening of X-linked gene expression from both X chromosomes. Subsequently, X chromosome dampening has also been demonstrated in female human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) during the transition from primed to naive state. However, the existence of dampened X chromosomes in both embryos and hPSCs remains controversial. Specifically, in preimplantation embryos it has been shown that there is inactivation of X chromosome instead of dampening. Here, we performed allelic analysis of X-linked genes at the single-cell level in hPSCs and found that there is partial reactivation of the inactive X chromosome instead of chromosome-wide dampening upon conversion from primed to naive state. In addition, our analysis suggests that the reduced X-linked gene expression in naive hPSCs might be the consequence of erasure of active X chromosome upregulation.
