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

The cohesin complex extrudes chromatin loops, stopping at sites bound by CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) and organizing chromosomes into topologically associated domains, yet biological implications of this process remain obscure. We show that cohesin controls the in vivo differentiation and function of murine antigen-presenting dendritic cells (DCs), particularly antigen cross-presentation and interleukin-12 (IL-12) secretion by type 1 conventional DCs (cDC1s). The chromatin organization of DCs was shaped by cohesin and the transcription factor IRF8, which facilitated chromatin looping and chromosome compartmentalization, respectively. Optimal expression of IRF8 itself required CTCF/cohesin binding sites demarcating the
