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

Although the haplotype structure of the human genome has been studied in great detail, very little is known about the mechanisms underlying its formation. To investigate the role of meiotic recombination on haplotype block formation, single nucleotide polymorphisms were selected at a high density from a 2.5-Mb region of human chromosome 21. Direct analysis of meiotic recombination by high-throughput multiplex genotyping of 662 single sperm identifies 41 recombinants. The crossovers were nonrandomly distributed within 16 small areas. All, except one, of these crossovers fall in areas where the haplotype structure exhibits breakdown, displaying a strong statistically positive association between crossovers and haplotype block breaks. The data also indicate a particular clustered distribution of recombination hotspots within the region. This finding supports the hypothesis that meiotic recombination makes a primary contribution to haplotype block formation in the human genome.
