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

Using the method of gene targeting in mouse embryonic stem cells, regulatory function of deltaEF1, a zinc finger and homeodomain-containing transcription factor, was investigated in vivo by generating the deltaEF1 mutant mice. The mutated allele of deltaEF1 produced a truncated form of the deltaEF1 protein lacking a zinc finger cluster proximal to COOH terminus. The homozygous deltaEF1 mutant mice had poorly developed thymi with no distinction of cortex and medulla. Analysis of the mutant thymocyte showed reduction of the total cell number by two orders of magnitude accompanying the impaired thymocyte development. The early stage intrathymic c-kit+ T precursor cells were largely depleted. The following thymocyte development also seemed to be affected as assessed by the distorted composition of CD4- or CD8-expressing cells. The mutant thymocyte showed elevated alpha4 integrin expression, which might be related to the T cell defect in the mutant mice. In the peripheral lymph node tissue of the mutant mice, the CD4-CD8+ single positive cells were significantly reduced relative to CD4+CD8-single positive cells. In contrast to T cells, other hematopoietic lineages appeared to be normal. The data indicated that deltaEF1 is involved in regulation of T cell development at multiple stages.
