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 Mediator complex plays a key role in gene transcription. In particular, the interaction of the Mediator complex with nuclear receptors, the known transcription factors, regulates multiple nuclear receptor-mediated gene transcription pathways and associated cellular functions. Dysregulation of the interaction of the Mediator complex with nuclear receptors results in many pathological processes, such as cancer, metabolic and neuronal diseases. Thus, understanding of the mechanism by which the Mediator complex regulates the nuclear receptor-mediated transcriptional activity and biological function is crucial for therapy of both the Mediator complex- and nuclear receptor-associated diseases. In this review article, we attempt to summarize current research progress in the interaction of the Mediator complex with nuclear receptors and the associated nuclear receptor transcriptional signaling pathways, explore the clinical potential of the Mediator complex as a therapeutic target, and provide new perspectives for the treatment of diseases associated with the Mediator complex and nuclear receptors.
