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

Mutations of the mouse limb deformity locus, ld, map to Chromosome (Chr) 2 and result in defects in the morphogenesis and patterning of the limb and kidney. Complementation studies have defined the existence of five recessive ld alleles. Remarkably, two of these, ldTgHd and ldTgBri, are transgene-induced mutations. Recovery of the first transgene insertional allele, ldTgHd, facilitated the molecular cloning of a large (greater than 200 kb) candidate gene at the ld locus. This gene is broadly transcribed and encodes a set of novel protein isoforms, termed formins. Here we present characterization of the ldTgBri mutation that supports the molecular identification of the ld gene. We show that the ldTgBri fails to complement both the ldTgHd and the ldOR alleles and that it has undergone a genomic deletion that disrupts the cloned ld gene and its transcripts. Curiously, the ldTgBri deletion encompasses the same 11-kb interval in which the ldTgHd insertion occurred and in which a chromosomal rearrangement has been identified in a third allele, ldIn2. These findings suggest that this region of the ld gene is a preferential site for illegitimate recombination.
