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 recently available DNA sequences from chromosomes 21 and 22 enabled us to define the relationships of different band types with isochores and with gene concentration and to compare these relationships with previous results. We showed that chromosomal bands appear as Giemsa or Reverse bands depending not on their absolute GC level, but on the composition GC level relative to those of adjacent contiguous bands. We also demonstrated that the GC-richest, and gene-richest H3+ bands are characterized by a lower DNA compaction compared with the GC-poorest, gene-poorest L1+ bands. Moreover, our results indicate that the human genome contains about 30,000 genes.
