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

Restriction enzyme-mediated integration (REMI) has been used to study a number of cellular and developmental processes in Dictyostelium discoideum. In this paper we review the basics of this powerful method of introducing random mutations in Dictyostelium. Here we discuss several mutation screens that have been devised and some of the genes that have been discovered through this approach to mutagenesis. Included in this discussion is how one goes about isolating a gene that has been disrupted by REMI, and how one confirms that this disruption is actually responsible for the observed phenotype. Finally, we describe how REMI can be used as an effective teaching tool in undergraduate cell biology laboratory courses.
