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.
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
We describe a newly developed technique for rapid identification of positions of genomic DNA breaks, preexisting or introduced by specific digestion, in particular, by restriction endonucleases (RIDGES). We applied RIDGES in analyzing unmethylated CCGG sites distribution along a 1-Mb long genome region (D19S208-COX7A1 on chromosome 19) in cancerous and normal lung tissues. Both tissues were characterized by a profoundly uneven density of unmethylated sites along the fragment. Interestingly, the distribution of hypomethylated regions did not correlate with gene locations within the fragment, and one of the most hypomethylated areas contained practically no genes. We also demonstrated that the methylation pattern of a long genome DNA fragment was rather stable and practically unchanged in human lung cancer tissue as compared with its normal counterpart, in accordance with the suggestion (Ross et al. in Nat Genet 24:227-235, 2000) that cell lines of common origin have typically similar transcription profiles. An analogous suggestion might probably be made for global methylation patterns of genomic DNA.
