Mitogen-activated protein kinases enhance long-range activation by the beta-globin locus control region.
Article in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1998. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The human beta-globin locus control region (LCR), which consists of four erythroid-specific DNase I hypersensitive sites (HS1-HS4), functions over a long distance to control the transcription, chromatin structure, and replication of the beta-globin genes. We have used stable transfection assays to show that activation of the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathway by low concentrations of the phorbol ester phorbol 12-tetradecanoate 13-acetate (TPA) induces enhancer activity of the LCR subregion HS2, but not HS3. Although HS2 enhancer activity is diminished with increasing distance from the promoter, the relative level of induction by TPA is independent of HS2-promoter distance. Mutation of cis-elements within HS2 reveals that the tandem-binding sites for the hematopoietic-specific transcription factor NF-E2 are required for induction by TPA, and induction is conferred by expressing NF-E2 in an NF-E2-null cell line. These results show that MAP kinases target factors functioning through the NF-E2 sites to enhance long-range transactivation by the LCR.
