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

Despite their evolutionary distance, the Saccharomyces cerevisiae retrotransposon Ty1 and retroviruses use similar strategies for replication, integration, and interactions with their hosts. Here we examine the formation of circular Ty1 DNA, which is comparable to the dead-end circular products that arise during retroviral infection. Appreciable levels of circular Ty1 DNA are present with one-long terminal repeat (LTR) circles and deleted circles comprising major classes, while two-LTR circles are enriched when integration is defective. One-LTR circles persist when homologous recombination pathways are blocked by mutation, suggesting that they result from reverse transcription. Ty1 autointegration events readily occur, and many are coincident with and dependent upon DNA flap structures that result from DNA synthesis initiated at the central polypurine tract. These results suggest that Ty1-specific mechanisms minimize copy number and raise the possibility that special DNA structures are a targeting determinant.
