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

The evolutionarily conserved multisubunit THO complex, which is recruited to actively transcribed genes, is required for the efficient expression of FLO11 and other yeast genes that have long internal tandem repeats. FLO11 transcription elongation in Tho- mutants is hindered in the region of the tandem repeats, resulting in a loss of function. Moreover, the repeats become genetically unstable in Tho- mutants. A FLO11 gene without the tandem repeats is transcribed equally well in Tho+ or Tho- strains. The Tho- defect in transcription is suppressed by overexpression of topoisomerase I, suggesting that the THO complex functions to rectify aberrant structures that arise during transcription.
