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

SETDB1, a H3K9 methyltransferase involved in nuclear transcriptional silencing, also localizes to the cytoplasm through unclear mechanisms. Here, we identify cell density as key regulator of SETDB1 subcellular localization and demonstrate its role in modulating the Hippo signaling pathway. Under low-density culture, SETDB1 distributes between nucleus and cytoplasm, whereas high-density culture triggers nuclear exclusion and proteasomal degradation. SETDB1 depletion reduces YAP1 phosphorylation and increases nuclear YAP1 accumulation. Transcriptomic analysis of SETDB1 knockout cells revealed upregulation of YAP1-TEAD1 target genes (YTGs). Immunoprecipitation experiments showed that SETDB1 is recruited to YTG promoters via TEAD1 and competes with YAP1 for TEAD1 binding. These findings reveal that SETDB1 regulates Hippo pathway output through YAP1 phosphorylation modulation and competitive transcriptional repression.
