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

Dishevelled (DVL) is a crucial component of the Wnt-signaling pathway and is vital for multiple physiological processes. Previously thought to have a classically cytoplasmic role, the discovery of DVL nuclear translocation reframed how it is viewed functionally. Although significant progress has been made in understanding the nuclear functions of DVL, further research is required to clarify its roles in transcriptional and epigenetic regulation. A key unresolved question is whether nuclear DVL1 associates with a transcription factor partner. We show here that modulation of DVL1 expression globally affects the transcriptomic landscape. Additionally, analysis of DVL1 ChIP-sequencing allowed us to map genome-wide binding sites, revealing the extensive reach of DVL1 binding. Integration of RNA-sequencing and ChIP-sequencing further revealed ETS1 as a transcription factor binding partner which targets nuclear DVL1 to specific genomic loci. These findings provide insight into the contribution of DVL1 in transcription and clarify aspects of its elusive nuclear function.
