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

Argonaute (AGO) proteins are critical regulators of gene expression. Of the four AGOs in mammals, AGO1 and AGO2 are expressed in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). These two proteins have opposing functions in controlling mESCs' fate decisions between pluripotency and differentiation. AGO2 promotes differentiation predominantly via the let-7 microRNAs, whereas AGO1 maintains pluripotency via modulating protein folding independent of small RNAs. These recent findings raise the question of whether and how these two AGOs are mutually regulated in mESCs. Here, using loss-of-function and gain-of-function approaches, we show that AGO2 represses the expression of
