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

In this paper we report the characterization of a newly sequenced 5' upstream region of the human HLA-DRA gene. We performed (i) search for transcription factor motifs, (ii) analysis of CpG display and observed/expected frequency ratios, (iii) search for regions homologous to the 5' upstream sequences of the murine EA gene, (iv) DNase I footprinting experiments and (v) electrophoretic mobility shift assays. Our results demonstrate the existence, in the HLA-DRA gene, of Y' and X' boxes highly homologous to the Y and X boxes present in MHC class II genes, but oriented in the opposite direction. These Y' and X' boxes have been conserved during the molecular evolution of both human HLA-DRA and murine EA genes. DNase I footprinting and gel retardation experiments suggest that the X' and Y' boxes of the HLA-DRA upstream gene region are specifically recognized by nuclear proteins that also bind to the X and Y boxes of the HLA-DRA proximal promoter, respectively.
