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

Nucleosome remodeling provides access to genomic DNA for recruitment of the transcriptional machinery to mediate gene expression. The aberrant function of nucleosome remodeling complexes has been correlated to human cancer, making them emerging therapeutic targets. The bromodomain PHD finger transcription factor, BPTF, is the largest member of the human nucleosome remodeling factor NURF. Over the last five years, BPTF has become increasingly identified as a protumorigenic factor, prompting investigations into the molecular mechanisms associated with BPTF function. Despite a druggable bromodomain, small molecule discovery is at an early stage. Here we highlight recent investigations into the biology being discovered for BPTF, chemical biology approaches used to study its function, and small molecule inhibitors being designed as future chemical probes and therapeutics.
