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 hippocampus is a highly plastic brain region sensitive to environmental stress. It shows dynamic changes in epigenetic marks associated with stress related learning. Previous work has shown that acute stress induces substantial transient changes in histone H3 lysine 9 trimethylation (H3K9me3). Moreover, increased H3K9me3 is enriched in hippocampal gene deserts accumulating within endogenous retroviruses and transposable elements. We have found that in response to acute glucocorticoid treatment, a similar change in global H3K9me3 is observed. However, when localized we found that H3K9me3 is markedly decreased at B2 short interspersed nuclear elements but not within intracisternal-A particle endogenous retroviruses. Further, decreased H3K9me3 valence within B2 elements was associated with increased transcript abundance. These data demonstrate the capacity for acute glucocorticoids to mobilize transposable elements via epigenetic unmasking. Reconciled with previous findings following acute stress, this suggests the capacity for mobile elements to potentially function as novel regulators given their dynamic regulation by stress and glucocorticoids.
