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

During the last decades it has been shown that the replication timing program in metazoans is related to chromosome structure, the nuclear positioning and AT/GC content of chromosomal loci, their patterns of histone modifications, and their transcriptional regulation. Here, the current state of knowledge concerning these relationships is reviewed. An integrated view on structure-function relationships in the nucleus is provided and the determination and functional role of the replication timing program is discussed in this context. A corresponding comprehensive model is developed and a key aspect of this model is the suggestion that mammalian chromosomes are organized into stable units equivalent to replicon clusters. It is proposed that the nuclear positions of these units would depend on their histone modifications and determine the replication timing of the whole unit. It is furthermore predicted that replication timing is only indirectly linked to transcriptional regulation and contributes to the maintenance of gene expression patterns. These clear predictions, and the fact that the tools are at hand now to further test them, open an avenue towards solving the long standing problem on how replication timing is determined in metazoan cells.
