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

Efficient transcription and replication of the bovine leukemia virus (BLV) genome require both the viral long terminal repeat (LTR) and the virus-coded transcriptional activator Tax, which functions through a 21-bp sequence (Tax-responsive element [TxRE]) which is repeated three times within the LTR. Since Tax does not bind directly to DNA, host cell transcription factors play a central role in BLV expression. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays with nuclear extracts prepared with infected bovine B lymphocytes revealed five TxRE-specific complexes (C1, C2, C3, C4, and C5). Here, by using a UV-induced indirect labeling technique (UV cross-linking) in conjunction with mobility shift assays, eight major polypeptides of 31, 33, 42, 46, 51, 57, 87, and 119 kDa were identified within these five complexes. Immunoprecipitation experiments identified the 57- and 119-kDa proteins as cyclic AMP response element-binding (CREB) proteins, the 46- and 51-kDa proteins as activating transcription factor-1 (ATF-1), and the 87-kDa as protein ATF-2. All of these proteins (except the ATF-1 protein of 51 kDa) belong to the complex C1, which is the major complex identified in freshly isolated BLV-infected lymphocytes from cattle with persistent lymphocytosis. In transient-cotransfection experiments, these three transcription factors were able to activate LTR-directed gene expression in the presence of protein kinase A or Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IV. CREB protein, ATF-1, and ATF-2 thus appear to be the major transcription factors involved in the early stages of viral expression.
