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

Multiplex hextuple luciferase assaying allows monitoring the activity of five experimental pathways against one control at the same time. To perform multiplex hextuple luciferase assaying, six orthogonal luciferase reporter units are needed of which five are pathway-specific and one acts as a control for normalization. To ensure stoichiometric delivery of all six luciferase reporters in every transfected cell, synthetic assembly DNA cloning is used to stitch together all six luciferase reporter units into a single vector. Here, we provide a detailed three-step synthetic assembly DNA protocol to generate multiplex hextuple luciferase reporter plasmids for any five cellular signaling pathways of interest, against a control normalization pathway. A first protocol is provided on how to generate plasmids that contain novel transcription factor-binding motifs for specific transcription factors. A second protocol details on how to couple these novel transcription factor-binding motifs to one of five orthogonal luciferases to obtain specific luciferase reporters for cellular signaling pathways acting upstream of those transcription factor-binding motifs. Finally, a third protocol provides details on how to assemble orthogonal luciferase reporters for five cellular signaling pathways acting upstream of five unique transcription factor-binding motifs together with a control constitutive pathway luciferase reporter that will be used for normalization to obtain a final multiplex hextuple luciferase vector.
