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

Linker histones play a fundamental role in determining higher order chromatin structure as a consequence of their association with nucelosomal DNA. Yet the locations and structural consequences of linker histone binding are still enigmatic. Here, using cryo-atomic force microscopy, we show that the linker histone H5 in native chromatin and in chromatosomes reconstituted on the 5S rDNA template is located at the dyad of the nucleosome core particle, within the "stem" structure. Direct measurement also indicates that the length of free linker DNA between chromatosomes in native chromatin is approximately 30 bp, slightly shorter than that estimated from nuclease digestion assays.
