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

A method has been established to convert pYAC4-based linear yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs) into circular chromosomes that can also be propagated in Escherichia coli cells as bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs). The circularization is based on use of a vector that contains a yeast dominant selectable marker (G418R), a BAC cassette and short targeting sequences adjacent to the edges of the insert in the pYAC4 vector. When it is introduced into yeast, the vector recombines with the YAC target sequences to form a circular molecule, retaining the insert but discarding most of the sequences of the YAC telomeric arms. YACs up to 670 kb can be efficiently circularized using this vector. Re-isolation of megabase-size YAC inserts as a set of overlapping circular YAC/BACs, based on the use of an Alu-containing targeting vector, is also described. We have shown that circular DNA molecules up to 250 kb can be efficiently and accurately transferred into E.coli cells by electroporation. Larger circular DNAs cannot be moved into bacterial cells, but can be purified away from linear yeast chromosomes. We propose that the described system for generation of circular YAC derivatives can facilitate sequencing as well as functional analysis of genomic regions.
