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

Erythroid Krüppel-like factor (EKLF) is an erythroid cell-specific DNA-binding protein that activates transcription from the beta-globin CACCC element, a functionally important and evolutionarily conserved component of globin as well as other erythroid cell-specific promoters and enhancers. We have attempted to elucidate the molecular role of EKLF in erythrocyte-specific transcriptional activation. First, in vivo and in vitro analyses have been used to demonstrate that the level of activation by EKLF is dependent on the orientation and number of CACCC elements, that EKLF contains separable activation and DNA-binding domains, and that the EKLF proline-rich region is a potent activator in CV-1 cells when fused to a nonrelated DNA-binding module. Second, we have established a transient assay in murine erythroleukemia cells in which reproducible levels of a reporter can be induced when linked to a locus control region enhancer-beta-globin promoter and in which induction is abolished when the promoter CAC site is mutated to a GAL site. Third, we demonstrate that the EKLF transactivation region, when fused to the GAL DNA-binding domain, can restore inducibility to this mutated construct and that this inducibility exhibits activator-, promoter-, and cell-type specificity. These results demonstrate that EKLF provides a crucial transactivation function for globin expression and further reinforce the idea that EKLF is an important regulator of CACCC element-directed transcription in erythroid cells.
