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 report the cDNA cloning of Stra13, a novel retinoic acid (RA)-inducible gene from P19 embryonal carcinoma cells that encodes a basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) protein that shows the highest sequence similarities to the Drosophila Hairy and Enhancer of split and mouse Hes proteins. Stra13 does not bind to the known consensus motifs (E-box and N-box) for bHLH proteins, but can repress activated transcription (through an alpha-helix rich domain) in part by interaction with general factors of the basal transcription machinery. During mouse embryogenesis, Stra13 RNA is expressed in the neuroectoderm, and also in a number of mesodermal and endodermal derivatives. Remarkably, overexpression of Stra13 in P19 cells results in neuronal differentiation in monolayer culture, under conditions where wild-type P19 cells only undergo mesodermal/endodermal differentiation. This neuronal differentiation is accompanied by an altered expression of mesodermal and neuronal markers, indicating that Stra13 could be one of the earliest RA target genes whose expression is required for repression of mesodermal/endodermal differentiation and/or induction of neuronal differentiation when P19 cell aggregates are exposed to RA. Our results raise the possibility that Stra13 could be involved as a repressor in a number of decision events occurring during differentiation of various cell lineages.
