Chicken vigilin gene: a distinctive pattern of hypersensitive sites is characteristic for its transcriptional activity.
Article in The Biochemical journal, 1997. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Vigilin, a multidomain hn-ribonucleo-K-homologous protein, is part of a ribonucleoprotein complex with cognate tRNA and is found in both the nucleus and the cytoplasm. In an approach to identify genomic regions involved in regulation of the chicken vigilin gene, we carried out transfection studies with a reporter gene in suitable chicken cells. After including a distantly positioned 5'-sequence in the construct, we observed a 10.5-fold increase in luciferase (EC 1. 13.12.7) expression compared with basal promoter activity. Accordingly, chromatin analysis of freshly isolated embryonic tendon fibroblasts with high levels of vigilin mRNA expression shows a DNase-I-hypersensitive site (DHS1) localized 2.2 kb upstream of the transcriptional start site. Similarly, phytohaemagglutinin-stimulated lymphocytes with a 4-fold elevated expression of vigilin mRNA compared with resting lymphocytes also exhibited this unique DHS, having switched from that found at 3.3 kb (DHS2) in resting lymphocytes. Furthermore, using gel-retardation experiments with DNA representing either DHS1 or DHS2, a specific interaction with chicken nuclear extracts was seen.
