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 SWI/SNF complex remodels chromatin in an ATP-dependent manner through the subunits BRG1 and BRM. Chromatin remodeling alters nucleosome structure to change gene expression; however, aberrant remodeling can result in cancer. We identified BCL7 proteins as critical SWI/SNF members that drive BRG1-dependent gene expression changes. BCL7s have been implicated in B-cell lymphoma, but characterization of their functional role within the SWI/SNF complex has been limited. This study implicates their function alongside BRG1 to drive large-scale changes in gene expression. Mechanistically, the BCL7 proteins bind to the HSA domain of BRG1 and require this domain for binding to chromatin. BRG1 proteins without the HSA domain fail to interact with the BCL7 proteins and have severely reduced chromatin remodeling activity. These results link the HSA domain and the formation of a functional SWI/SNF remodeling complex through the interaction with BCL7 proteins. These data highlight the importance of correct formation of the SWI/SNF complex to drive critical biological functions, as losses of individual accessory members or protein domains can cause loss of complex function.
