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

A gene encoding a novel CACCC box-binding protein that binds to the promoter region of the human T-cell receptor (TCR) V beta 8.1 gene and the mouse TCR alpha gene silencer has been cloned. This gene, termed ht beta, contains four zinc fingers of the class Cys2-X12-His2 that may be responsible for DNA binding and a highly negatively charged region that defines a putative transcriptional activation domain. Analysis of the expression of ht beta mRNA revealed similar expression levels and patterns in various cell lines. The bacterially expressed ht beta protein can bind to the CACCC box in both the human TCR V beta 8.1 gene promoter and the mouse TCR alpha gene silencer. The CACCC box is essential for efficient transcription of the V beta 8.1 promoter. Cotransfection with an ht beta expression plasmid and a reporter vector indicated that ht beta can activate human TCR V beta 8.1 gene transcription. ht beta also is able to counteract the silencing effect of the mouse TCR alpha gene silencer. The CACCC box has been found in almost all V beta 8.1 gene subfamily members and in both TCR alpha and beta gene enhancers in humans and mice. These results suggest that the CACCC box-binding protein may have an important regulatory function for TCR gene expression in alpha beta T cells versus gamma delta T cells.
