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

SWI/SNF complexes in yeast and higher eukaryotes are thought to facilitate gene activation and transcription factor binding by disrupting repressive chromatin structures. Little is known, however, about how these complexes target specific genes for activation. We now have purified a specialized SWI/SNF-related complex (PYR complex) from murine erythroleukemia (MEL) cell nuclear extract that binds pyrimidine-rich elements at the human and murine beta-globin loci. PYR complex DNA-binding activity is restricted to definitive hematopoietic cells and is both DNA sequence- and length-dependent. Mass spectrometric identification of purified peptides and antibody supershift assays indicate that PYR complex contains at least four known mammalian SWI/SNF subunits: BAF57, INI1, BAF60a, and BAF170. PYR complex broadly footprints a 250-bp pyrimidine-rich element between the human fetal and adult beta-globin genes. A short intergenic deletion that removes this element from a human globin locus cosmid construct results in delayed human fetal-to-adult globin gene switching in transgenic mice. Taken together, the data suggest that PYR complex may act through this intergenic element to facilitate human fetal-to-adult globin gene switching, presumably by opening the locus in the region of the adult genes to permit the binding of beta-globin transcriptional activators.
