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 human aldolase A tissue-specific M promoter (pM) has served as a model system for identifying pathways that lead to fast-muscle-specialized expression. The current study has delimited the sequences necessary and sufficient for fast-muscle-specific expression in transgenic mice to a short 209-bp fragment extending from bp -164 to +45 relative to the pM transcription start site. Genomic footprinting methods showed that in this proximal region, the same elements that bind muscle nuclear proteins in vitro are involved in DNA-protein interactions in intact muscle nuclei of transgenic mice. Furthermore, these experiments provided the first evidence that different DNA-binding activities exist between slow and fast muscles in vivo. Fast-muscle-specific interactions occur at an element named M1 and at a muscle-specific DNase I-hypersensitive site that was previously detected by in vitro methods. The formation of the muscle-specific DNase I-hypersensitive site reflects binding of proteins to a close element, named M2, which contains a binding site for nuclear factors of the NF1 family. Mutational analysis performed with transgenic mice confirmed the importance of the M1 element for high-level fast-muscle-specific pM activity and suggested that the M2/NF1 element is differently required for correct pM expression in distinct fast muscles. In addition, two other protein binding sites, the MEF3 motif and the USF site, seem to act as stage-specific activators and/or as participants in the establishment of an active chromatin configuration at pM.
