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 aldolase B proximal promoter is controlled by at least five elements spanning from -190 to -103 bp with respect to the start site of transcription. From 5' to 3', we found: a negative DE element, an activating C/EBP-DBP binding site, a CCAAT box binding NFY that seems to play a negative role, and an activating element consisting of two overlapping binding sites for HNF-1 and HNF-3. Contransfection experiments of aldolase B/CAT constructs and of expression vectors for different transcription factors were carried out in human hepatoma Hep G2 cells. We found that DBP and HNF-1 are strong transactivators of the aldolase B promoter while C/EBP and vHNF-1 are only weak activators and HNF-3 alone does not modify such activity. Deletion of the distal negative element results in a similar transactivation by C/EBP and DBP, enhanced for the former and reduced for the latter. In hepatocytes in primary culture, the strong transactivator is C/EBP while DBP is essentially inactive. This tissue-specificity of C/EBP and DBP action could depend on interaction with tissue-specific proteins bound to a neighbouring site, probably DE. Finally, HNF3 behaves as a very strong anti-activator of the aldolase B promoter. It competitively antagonizes transactivation by HNF-1 and non-competitively transactivation by DBP. This negative effect of HNF-3 and tissue-specificity of the transactivation potential of DBP and C/EBP are unique features of the aldolase B promoter.
