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 murine Ly49 gene family encoding natural killer cell receptors for class I MHC is an example of a rapidly evolving cluster of immune response genes. Determining the genomic sequence of the 129S6/SvEvTac (129S6) Ly49 cluster and comparing it to the known sequence of the C57BL/6 (B6) region provided insight into the mechanisms of Ly49 gene evolution. 129S6 contains 20 Ly49, many of which are pseudogenes and 40% of the genes have no counterpart in the B6 genome. The difference in gene content between these two strains is primarily the result of distinct patterns of gene duplication. Phylogenetic analyses of individual exons showed that Ly49 genes form distinct sub-families and an ancestral haplotype can be surmised. Dotplot analysis supports limited allelism in the two haplotypes; however, large regions of variation punctuate these islands of co-linearity. These variable regions contain a high concentration of repetitive elements that are predicted to contribute to the dynamic evolution of this cluster. The extreme variation in Ly49 haplotype content between mouse strains provides a genetic explanation for the documented differences in natural killer cell phenotype, and also indicates that differences in natural killer cell function observed between B6 and 129-derived gene-targeted mice should be interpreted with caution.
