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

Temporal control of transgenes has advanced biomedical interventions, including in vivo reprogramming, often utilizing the doxycycline (Dox)-mediated Tet-ON system. Here, we developed the Dox-mediated Tet-ON or complementary Tet-OFF counterpart to thoroughly investigate spatial and temporal transgene regulation in adult tissues, revealing inherent limitations and unexpected capabilities of each system. In stark contrast with the Tet-ON system, which was effective only in particular tissues and cell types, primarily epithelial cells, the Tet-OFF system proved capable of gene induction across diverse cell types. Despite the drawback of the Tet-OFF system in inducibility and tunability identified in our study, we demonstrated that use of tetracycline (Tc) effectively addresses these issues, possibly through its pharmacologic properties. Our data suggest that the Tc-mediated Tet-OFF system not only enables more versatile control of transgene expression but also offers a more biocompatible alternative for in vivo applications such as tissue regeneration and organismal rejuvenation.
