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

Arabidopsis thaliana has emerged in recent years as a leading model for understanding the structure and function of higher eukaryotic centromeres. Arabidopsis centromeres, like those of virtually all higher eukaryotes, encompass large DNA domains consisting of a complex combination of unique, dispersed middle repetitive and highly repetitive DNA. For this reason, they have required creative analysis using molecular, genetic, cytological and genomic techniques. This synergy of approaches, reinforced by rapid progress in understanding how proteins interact with the centromere DNA to form a complete functional unit, has made Arabidopsis one the best understood centromere systems. Yet major problems remain to be solved: gaining a complete structural definition of the centromere has been surprisingly difficult, and developing synthetic mini-chromosomes in plants has been even more challenging.
