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

Microdeletions of the AZFb region of the human Y chromosome usually result in severe consequences for spermatogenesis. AZFb contains at least four kinds of genes/gene families. These include a number of RBMY genes, which are clustered in the AZFb deletion interval. They are amongst the oldest genes on the mammalian Y chromosome, and are related to the gene encoding hnRNPG (RBMX) on the X chromosome. A retroposon-derived version of these genes is found on chromosome 11 that might replace the function of these genes during meiosis, during which time the X and Y chromosomes are transcriptionally inactivated. Each of these genes encodes proteins with an RNA binding motif, and interacts with more ubiquitously expressed proteins involved in pre-mRNA splice site selection. These findings imply that important pre-mRNA processing pathways might be disrupted in the germ cells of AZFb men.
