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 genomic distribution of the abundant eukaryotic d(GA x TC)(n) DNA microsatellite suggests that it could contribute to DNA recombination. Here, it is shown that this type of microsatellite DNA sequence enhances DNA recombination in SV40 minichromosomes, the rate of homologous DNA recombination increasing by as much as two orders of magnitude in the presence of a d(GA x TC)(22) sequence. This effect depends on the region of the SV40 genome at which the d(GA x TC)(22) sequence is cloned. It is high when the sequence is located proximal to the SV40 control region but no effect is observed when located 3.5 kb away from the SV40 ori. These results indicate that the recombination potential of d(GA x TC)(n) sequences is likely linked to DNA replication and/or transcription. The potential contribution of the structural properties of d(GA x TC)(n) sequences to this effect is discussed.
