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

Transcription of nuclear genes usually involves trans-activators, whereas repression is exerted by chromatin. For several genes the transcription mediated by trans-activators and the repression mediated by chromatin depend on the CP complex, a recently described abundant yeast nuclear complex of the Pob3 and Cdc68/Spt16 proteins. We report that the N-terminal third of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Cdc68 protein is dispensable for gene activation but necessary for the maintenance of chromatin repression. The absence of this 300-residue N-terminal domain also decreases the need for the Swi/Snf chromatin-remodeling complex in transcription and confers an Spt- effect characteristic of chromatin alterations. The repression domain, and indeed the entire Cdc68 protein, is highly conserved, as shown by the sequence of the Cdc68 functional homolog from the yeast Kluyveromyces lactis and by database searches. The repression-defective (truncated) form of Cdc68 is stable but less active at high temperatures, whereas the known point-mutant form of Cdc68, encoded by three independent mutant alleles, alters the N-terminal repression domain and destabilizes the mutant protein.
