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

The type I interferon (IFN) signaling pathway involves binding of the transcription factor ISGF3 to IFN-stimulated response elements, ISREs. Gene expression under IFN stimulation is known to vary across cell types, but variation in ISGF3 binding to ISRE across cell types has not been characterized. We examined ISRE binding patterns under IFN stimulation across six cell types using existing ChIPseq datasets. We find that ISRE binding is largely cell specific for ISREs distal to transcription start sites (TSS) and largely conserved across cell types for ISREs proximal to TSS. We show that bound ISRE distal to TSS associate with differential expression of ISGs, although at weaker levels than bound ISRE proximal to TSS. Using existing ATACseq and ChIPseq datasets, we show that the chromatin state of ISRE at homeostasis is cell type specific and is predictive of cell specific, ISRE binding under IFN stimulation. Our results support a model in which the chromatin state of ISRE in enhancer elements is modulated in a cell type specific manner at homeostasis, leading to cell type specific differences in ISRE binding patterns under IFN stimulation.
