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

Premeiotic and meiotic chromosome distribution was studied in rat testes suspensions by a triple-color fluorescent staining protocol which allows simultaneous visual inspection of two chromosomal targets highlighted by FISH together with immunostained SCP3 synaptonemal complex (SC) proteins which are marked by a third, composite color. Triple labeling with rat chromosome (RNO) 4q and 19p specific probes and SCP3 staining disclosed that homologs are separated in premeiotic and leptotene nuclei. Pairing of homologous chromosome regions commenced during early zygotene, with pairing of the small metacentric chromosomes 19 preceding that of the distal region of the long arm of RNO4. Our results show that homolog association occurs during zygotene of rat spermatogenesis, with small and large chromosomes showing a considerable asynchrony. Comparison with pairing progression in meiosis of other mammals suggests that asynchronous chromosome pairing reflects size differences within a complement.
