Gv1, a Zinc Finger Gene Controlling Endogenous MLV Expression.
Article in Molecular biology and evolution, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
The genomes of inbred mice harbor around 50 endogenous murine leukemia virus (MLV) loci, although the specific complement varies greatly between strains. The Gv1 locus is known to control the transcription of endogenous MLVs and to be the dominant determinant of cell-surface presentation of MLV envelope, the GIX antigen. Here, we identify a single Krüppel-associated box zinc finger protein (ZFP) gene, Zfp998, as Gv1 and show it to be necessary and sufficient to determine the GIX+ phenotype. By long-read sequencing of bacterial artificial chromosome clones from 129 mice, the prototypic GIX+ strain, we reveal the source of sufficiency and deficiency as splice-acceptor variations and highlight the varying origins of the chromosomal region encompassing Gv1. Zfp998 becomes the second identified ZFP gene responsible for epigenetic suppression of endogenous MLVs in mice and further highlights the prominent role of this gene family in control of endogenous retroviruses.
