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

Predicting where transcription factors bind in the genome from their in vitro DNA-binding affinity is confounded by the large number of possible interactions with nearby transcription factors. To characterize the in vivo binding logic for the Wnt effector Tcf7l2, we developed a high-throughput screening platform in which thousands of synthesized DNA phrases are inserted into a specific genomic locus, followed by measurement of Tcf7l2 binding by DamID. Using this platform at two genomic loci in mouse embryonic stem cells, we show that while the binding of Tcf7l2 closely follows the in vitro motif-binding strength and is influenced by local chromatin accessibility, it is also strongly affected by the surrounding 99 bp of sequence. Through controlled sequence perturbation, we show that Oct4 and Klf4 motifs promote Tcf7l2 binding, particularly in the adjacent ∼50 bp and oscillating with a 10.8-bp phasing relative to these cofactor motifs, which matches the turn of a DNA helix.
