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

BIMD of Aspergillus nidulans belongs to a highly conserved protein family implicated, in filamentous fungi, in sister-chromatid cohesion and DNA repair. We show here that BIMD is chromosome associated at all stages, except from late prophase through anaphase, during mitosis and meiosis, and is involved in several aspects of both programs. First, bimD(+) function must be executed during S through M. Second, in bimD6 germlings, mitotic nuclear divisions and overall cellular program occur more rapidly than in wild type. Thus, BIMD, an abundant chromosomal protein, is a negative regulator of normal cell cycle progression. Third, bimD6 reduces the level of mitotic interhomolog recombination but does not alter the ratio between crossover and noncrossover outcomes. Moreover, bimD6 is normal for intrachromosomal recombination. Therefore, BIMD is probably not involved in the enzymology of recombinational repair per se. Finally, during meiosis, staining of the Sordaria ortholog Spo76p delineates robust chromosomal axes, whereas BIMD stains all chromatin. SPO76 and bimD are functional homologs with respect to their roles in mitotic chromosome metabolism but not in meiosis. We propose that BIMD exerts its diverse influences on cell cycle progression as well as chromosome morphogenesis and recombination by modulating chromosome structure.
