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 sequence-based map of a part of the rhesus macaque major histocompatibility complex (MHC) extended class II region is presented. The sequenced region encompasses 67,401 bp and contains the SACM2L, RING1, FABGL and KE4 genes, as well as the HTATSF1-like and ZNF-like pseudogenes. Similar to human, but different from rat and mouse, no class I genes are found in the SACM2L- RING1 interval. The rhesus macaque extended MHC class II region shows a high degree of conservation of exonic as well as intronic and intergenic sequences compared with the respective human region. It is concluded that this particular genomic organization of the extended class II region-i.e., the absence of class I genes and the presence of the HTATSF1-like and ZNF-like pseudogenes-can be traced back to a common ancestor of humans and rhesus macaques about 23 million years ago.
