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

The E2F family of proteins is required to establish the correct cell-cycle-dependent transcription of genes that direct the process of cell division. All previously identified E2F proteins can act in a similar manner; depending on whether or not they are associated with the cell cycle inhibitors the retinoblastoma protein (pRB), p107, or p130, they can either repress or activate the transcription of E2F-responsive genes. We now report the cloning and characterization of another E2F family member, E2F-6, whose structure is reminiscent of the dominant inhibitors of other transcription factor families. The dimerization and DNA binding properties of E2F-6 are similar to those of the other E2F family members. However, it is not regulated by pRB, p107, or p130, and it is unable to activate transcription. Instead, it can act to repress the transcription of E2F responsive genes by countering the activity of the other E2F complexes via a pRB-, p107-, or p130-independent mechanism.
