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

E2A is a basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor required for B cell lymphopoiesis and implicated in myogenesis and the regulation of insulin expression. As E2A is expressed widely in tissues, tissue-specific downstream effects are thought to result primarily from dimerization with other bHLH proteins. To investigate the degree to which regulation of E2A protein abundance may serve to regulate E2A function, expression of E2A was evaluated using immunohistochemistry on histological sections of primary human tissues. Somewhat surprisingly, nuclear staining for E2A was restricted in all tissues examined, often to a small subpopulation of cells. In some tissues, such as adult liver, expression was absent or limited to rare infiltrating lymphocytes. E2A-expressing cells were most abundant in lymphoid tissues. In tonsil, lymph node, and spleen, expression appeared most abundant and prevalent among rapidly proliferating centroblasts of the germinal center dark zone. Scattered E2A-expressing thymocytes were more numerous in the thymic cortex than medulla. In developing skeletal muscle, E2A was detectable in striated myotubes but not in more primitive mononucleated progenitors or mature muscle. Differential E2A expression was also noted in proliferating periventricular neuroepithelial cells in the developing brain. These results suggest that regulation of E2A abundance complements protein-protein interactions in modulating E2A function.
