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

Adenovirus E1A encodes two major proteins of 289 and 243 amino acids (289R and 243R), which both have transcription regulatory properties. E1A-289R is a transactivator whereas E1A-243R primarily functions as a repressor of transcription. Here we show that E1A repression is not restricted to RNA polymerase II genes but also includes the adenovirus virus-associated (VA) RNA genes. These genes are transcribed by RNA polymerase III and have previously been suggested to be the target of an E1A-289R-mediated transactivation. Surprisingly, we found that during transient transfection both E1A proteins repressed VA RNA transcription. E1A repression of VA RNA transcription required both conserved regions 1 and 2 and therefore differed from the E1A-mediated inhibition of simian virus 40 enhancer activity which primarily required conserved region 1. The repression was counteracted by the E1B-19K protein, which also, in the absence of E1A, enhanced the accumulation of VA RNA. Importantly, we show that efficient VA RNA transcription requires expression of both E1A and the E1B-19K protein during virus infection.
