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 murine esBAF complex plays a major role in the regulation of gene expression during stem cell development and differentiation. As one of its core subunits, Smarcb1 is indispensable for its function and its loss is connected to neurodevelopmental disorders and participates in the carcinogenesis of entities such as rhabdoid tumours. We explored how Smarcb1 regulates gene programs in murine embryonic stem cells (mESC) and in this way orchestrates differentiation. Our data underline the importance of Smarcb1 expression and function for the development of the nervous system along with basic cellular functions, such as cell adhesion and cell organisation. Using ChIP-seq, we were able to portray the consequences of Smarcb1 knockdown (kd) for the binding of esBAF and PRC2 as well as its influence on histone marks H3K27me3, H3K4me3 and H3K27ac. Their signals are changed in gene and enhancer regions of genes connected to nervous system development and offers a plausible explanation for changes in gene expression. Further, we describe a group of genes that are, despite increased BAF binding, suppressed after Smarcb1 kd by mechanisms independent of PRC2 function.
