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

A fundamental feature of cell signaling is the conversion of extracellular signals into adaptive transcriptional responses. The role of RNA modifications in this process is poorly understood. The small nuclear RNA 7SK prevents transcriptional elongation by sequestering the cyclin dependent kinase 9/cyclin T1 (CDK9/CCNT1) positive transcription elongation factor (P-TEFb) complex. We found that epidermal growth factor signaling induces phosphorylation of the enzyme methyltransferase 3 (METTL3), leading to METTL3-mediated methylation of 7SK. 7SK methylation enhanced its binding to heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins, causing the release of the HEXIM1 P-TEFb complex subunit1 (HEXIM1)/P-TEFb complex and inducing transcriptional elongation. Our findings establish the mechanism underlying 7SK activation and uncover a previously unknown function for the m
