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

Generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) is inefficient and stochastic. The underlying causes for these deficiencies are elusive. Here, we showed that the reprogramming factors (OCT4, SOX2, and KLF4, collectively OSK) elicit dramatic reprogramming stress even without the pro-oncogene MYC including massive transcriptional turbulence, massive and random deregulation of stress-response genes, cell cycle impairment, downregulation of mitotic genes, illegitimate reprogramming, and cytotoxicity. The conserved dominant-negative (DN) peptides of the three ubiquitous human bromodomain and extraterminal (BET) proteins enhanced iPSC reprogramming and mitigated all the reprogramming stresses mentioned above. The concept of reprogramming stress developed here affords an alternative avenue to understanding and improving iPSC reprogramming. These DN BET fragments target a similar set of the genes as the BET chemical inhibitors do, indicating a distinct approach to targeting BET proteins.
