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

c-ski gene product is a nuclear protein with myogenesis-promoting and transforming activities. We have analysed the effects of c-ski transfection on the promoter/enhancer activity of the upstream region of the myogenin gene during in vitro myogenesis using CAT reporter assay. When co-transfected with c-ski into myogenic C2C12 cells, promoter/enhancer activity was efficiently suppressed in proliferating cells, but the myogenesis-induced increase in activity was potentiated approximately ten times more (150-fold in the ski-transfected cells) than the ordinary increase (12-fold in the mock) 48 h after induction of differentiation. In non-myogenic 10T1/2 cells, c-ski transfection caused persistent suppression of promoter/enhancer activity in both proliferating and growth-arrested (i.e. myogenesis-inducing) conditions. Thus the ski-dependent potentiation of myogenin gene transcriptional activity appears to be specific for myogenesis. The C-terminal region (amino acids 595-663) of the c-Ski protein was essential for the potentiating activity in myotubes. Other members of the ski-gene family, snoN and snoA, were ineffective in transactivation, possibly because of the defect in the corresponding C-terminal region. c-Ski protein underwent a mobility shift on SDS/PAGE after in vitro myogenesis which may explain the conversion of the activity from suppressive in myoblasts to potentiating in myotubes. Deletion analysis of the upstream region of the myogenin gene revealed that a responsive element to c-ski in myotubes is located at a distinct site upstream of the basal promoter/enhancer region.
