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 395 bp fragment located downstream from the soybean heat shock gene Gmhsp 17.6-L exhibits several characteristics of scaffold attachment region (SAR) sequences. It contains matrix consensus elements, a topoisomerase II binding sequence and it associates with the isolated nuclear scaffold of soybean in vitro. Chimaeric genes containing the SARL fragment either at one side (5' or 3') or at both sides of a heat shock promoter-regulated beta-glucuronidase reporter gene were constructed. A five- to nine-fold increase of heat-inducible beta-glucuronidase activity was observed in transgenic tobacco plants containing constructs with SARL fragments either at both sides or with at least one SARL copy located upstream from the reporter gene. The gene copy number is positively correlated with the level of heat-inducible reporter gene activity in these plants but positional effects are not entirely eliminated. Thus, SAR sequences may potentially be used to increase gene expression, via as yet unknown mechanisms, and to reduce adverse effects on the expression of multiple gene copies in transgenic plants.
