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

Translocation and aberrant hypermutation of c-MYC are common in B-cell lymphomas. Activation-induced Cytidine Deaminase (AID) initiates switch recombination and somatic hypermutation in B cells by targeted deamination of transcribed genes. We show that transcription of the immunoglobulin S regions and c-MYC results in formation of similar DNA structures, 'G-loops', which contain a cotranscriptional RNA: DNA hybrid on the C-rich strand and single-stranded regions and G4 DNA on the G-rich strand. AID binds specifically to G-loops within transcribed S regions and c-MYC, and G-loops in c-MYC map to the regions associated with translocation breakpoints and aberrant hypermutation in B-cell lymphomas. Aberrant targeting of AID to DNA structures formed upon c-MYC transcription may therefore contribute to the genetic instability of c-MYC in B-cell malignancies.
