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

An efficient insertional mutagenesis system has been developed for Schizosaccharomyces pombe based on linear PCR-generated cassettes containing selectable markers. It depends upon illegitimate recombination for integration into the genome. Various selectable markers of different sizes can be used to obtain sufficiently high transformation and integration frequencies. Based on Southern blotting, a single insertion is found in each strain and integration sites are broadly distributed in the genome. Sequence analysis of the insert junctions frequently reveals small regions of homology (4-10 bp) between the ends of the integrated cassette and the disrupted gene. The system has been used for simple genetic screens of various types and as a promoter trap for in-frame GFP fusions.
