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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesEuchromatic histone lysine methyltransferase 2 (EHMT2, also known as G9a) is a mammalian histone methyltransferase that catalyzes the dimethylation of histone 3 lysine 9 (H3K9). On human chromosome 15, the parental-specific expression of Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS)-related genes, such as

methodsWe used small interfering RNA (siRNA) oligonucleotides and lentiviral short harpin RNA (shRNA) to reduce

resultsWith an approximate reduction of 90% in

conclusionsRNAi reduction in EHMT2 activates maternally silenced PWS genes. Further studies are needed to determine whether the increase is therapeutically relevant. This study confirms the role of EHMT2 in the epigenetic regulation of PWS genes.
