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 genomic analysis of heterochromatin is essential for studying chromosome behavior as well as for understanding chromosome evolution. The Y chromosome of Drosophila melanogaster is entirely heterochromatic and the under-representation of this chromosome in genomic libraries together with the difficulty of assembling its sequence has made its study very difficult. Here, we present the construction of bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) contigs from regions h14, h16 and the centromeric region h18. The analysis of these contigs shows that telomere-derived sequences are present at internal regions. In addition, immunostaining of prometaphase chromosomes with an antibody to the kinetochore-specific protein BubR1 has revealed the presence of this protein in some Y chromosome regions rich in telomere-related sequences. Collectively, our data provide further evidence for the hypothesis that the Drosophila Y chromosomes might have evolved from supernumerary chromosomes.
