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

Enhancers act as cis-regulatory elements, controlling the expression of genes according to developmental stages, external signalling, and cell states. Recent studies have shown the impact of perturbation of enhancer activity on expression of genes and cell properties. However, at the same time, perturbation of many enhancers does not always show substantial effect on the expression of genes or properties of cells. Hence, there is a need to identify enhancers that can be effectively targeted for therapeutics and understanding regulation. Therefore, a comprehensive resource containing information on the effect of knockdown of enhancers is needed. Here, we introduce a database ePerturbDB, which provides resources to search the effects of 83 743 experimental perturbations of enhancers. The ePerturbDB database allows users to compare their genomic loci to the list of perturbed enhancers to know their potential effect. It also provides enriched genes and ontology terms for query enhancer location overlapping with a known experimentally perturbed enhancer list. Thus, the resource and tool in ePerturbDB can help users build hypotheses and design experiments to find effective enhancer-based therapeutics and inferences about the regulation of cell states.
