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

Transcription factors (TFs) bind to enhancers and recruit H3K4me1 methyltransferase KMT2D, chromatin remodeler cBAF, and H3K27 acetyltransferase p300 to activate transcription. However, the role of chromatin modifiers in regulating de novo binding of TFs on enhancers remains unclear. Using a robust nuclear translocation system, we show that the muscle lineage-determining TF MyoD binds to chromatin pervasively within one hour, with half of induced MyoD binding sites co-occupied by KMT2D, cBAF, and p300. On the majority of these MyoD
