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

Assembly of the gene encoding T cell receptor alpha (Tcra) is characterized by an orderly progression of primary and secondary V(alpha)-to-J(alpha) recombination events across the J(alpha) array, but the targeting mechanisms responsible for this progression are mostly unknown. Studies have shown that the T early-alpha promoter is important in targeting primary Tcra rearrangements. We found that T early-alpha and a previously unknown promoter associated with J(alpha)49 targeted primary recombination to discrete sets of constant alpha region (C(alpha))-distal J(alpha) segments and together directed nearly all normal primary recombination events. Furthermore, deletion of the T early-alpha promoter activated previously suppressed downstream promoters and stimulated primary rearrangement to centrally located J(alpha) segments. Central promoter derepression also occurred after primary rearrangement, thereby providing a mechanism to target secondary recombination events.
