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

LINE-1 (L1) elements are the most abundant autonomous non-LTR retrotransposons in the human genome. Having recently performed a meta-analysis of L1 endonuclease-mediated retrotranspositional events causing human genetic disease, we have extended this study by focusing on two key issues, namely, mutation detection bias and the multiplicity of mechanisms of target gene disruption. Our analysis suggests that whereas an ascertainment bias may have generally militated against the detection of autosomal L1-mediated insertions, autosomal L1 direct insertions could have been disproportionately overlooked owing to their unusually large size. Our analysis has also indicated that the mechanisms underlying the functional disruption of target genes by L1-mediated retrotranspositional events are likely to be dependent on several different factors such as the type of insertion (L1 direct, L1 trans-driven Alu, or SVA), the precise locations of the inserted sequences within the target gene regions, the length of the inserted sequences, and possibly also their orientation.
