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

We previously demonstrated that MIBP1 and RFX1 polypeptides associate in vivo to form a complex that binds to the MIF-1 element in the c-myc gene and the major histocompatibility complex class II X-box recognition sequence. We now show that the EP element, a key regulatory sequence within hepatitis B virus enhancer I, also associates with MIBP1 and RFX1. Using polyclonal antisera directed against either oligonucleotide-purified MIBP1 or a peptide derived from the major histocompatibility complex class II promoter-binding protein RFX1, we showed that MIBP1 and RFX1 are both present in the DNA-protein complexes at the EP site. In addition, while the EP element can act cooperatively with several adjacent elements to transactivate hepatitis B virus expression, we demonstrated that the EP site alone can repress transcription of simian virus 40 promoter in a position- and orientation-independent manner, suggesting a silencer function in hepatocarcinoma cells.
