Zaba: a novel miniature transposable element present in genomes of legume plants.

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.
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
A novel family of miniature transposable elements, named Zaba, was identified in pea (Pisum sativum) and subsequently also in other legume species using computer analysis of their DNA sequences. Zaba elements are 141-190 bp long, generate 10-bp target site duplications, and their terminal inverted repeats make up most of the sequence. Zaba elements thus resemble class 3 foldback transposons. The elements are only moderately repetitive in pea (tens to hundreds copies per haploid genome), but they are present in up to thousands of copies in the genomes of several Medicago and Vicia species. More detailed analysis of the elements from pea, including isolation of new sequences from a genomic library, revealed that a fraction of these elements are truncated, and that their last transposition probably did not occur recently. A search for Zaba sequences in EST databases showed that at least some elements are transcribed, most probably due to their association with genic regions.
