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 steroid hormone 20-hydroxyecdysone controls both induction and repression of the Drosophila 'intermolt gene' Sgs-4. We show here that the ecdysone receptor binds to two sites, element I and element II, in the regulatory region of Sgs-4. A functional analysis revealed that element II appears to be of no importance for Sgs-4 expression, while element I proved to be an ecdysone response element that is necessary, but not sufficient, for induction of Sgs-4 expression. Our results provide no evidence that repression of Sgs-4 expression is mediated by one of the two receptor binding sites. In the close vicinity of elements I and II, we detected two binding sites of secretion enhancer binding protein 3 (SEBP 3). Like receptor element I, one of these sites also proved to be necessary, but not sufficient, for expression of Sgs-4. Therefore, induction of Sgs-4 requires binding of both ecdysone receptor and SEBP 3 to a complex hormone response unit, which also contains binding sites for a third factor, SEBP 2. The SEBP 2 sites coincide with binding sites of products of the Broad-Complex locus, which has been implicated recently with transduction of the hormonal signal. Thus, the available data suggest that induction of Sgs-4, and possibly other 'intermolt genes', is a combination of a primary and a secondary response to the hormone.
