Differential H3K4me3 Domains in Normal and Colorectal Cancer Cells Reveal Novel Epigenetic Targets.

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.
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
Histone H3 trimethylated at lysine 4 (H3K4me3) is an histone mark associated with transcriptionally active genes. H3K4me3 has two types of distribution: a sharp distribution of approximately 500 bp and a broad H3K4me3 domain that may extend 4 kb and longer through the gene body. Most transcribed genes have a narrow H3K4me3 configuration, whereas genes involved in cell identity and tumor suppression have a broad arrangement in normal cells. In cancer cells, genes that promote cancer possess a broad H3K4me3 domain. In this study, we performed H3K4me3 chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing to determine the genes with narrow and broad H3K4me3 configurations in normal colon epithelial cells and three colon cancer cell lines. The analysis revealed that genes involved in cell adhesion and nervous system development had an H3K4me3 peak next to their transcription start site in normal cells but not in colon cancer cells. Genes coding for long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) were differentially marked with a broad H3K4me3 domain in normal colon versus colon cancer cells (
