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 recombination of variable (V) and joining (J) gene segments at the T cell receptor alpha locus, a ValphaJalpha joint resulting from primary rearrangement can be replaced by subsequent rounds of secondary rearrangement that use progressively more 5' Valpha segments and progressively more 3' Jalpha segments. To understand the mechanisms that target secondary T cell receptor alpha recombination, we studied the behavior of a T cell receptor alpha allele (HYalpha) engineered to mimic a natural primary rearrangement of TRAV17 to Jalpha57. The introduced ValphaJalpha segment was shown to provide chromatin accessibility to Jalpha segments situated within several kilobases downstream and to suppress germ-line Jalpha promoter activity and accessibility at greater distances. As a consequence, the ValphaJalpha segment directed secondary recombination events to a subset of Jalpha segments immediately downstream from the primary rearrangement. The data provide the mechanistic basis for a model of primary and secondary T cell receptor alpha recombination in which recombination events progress in multiple small steps down the Jalpha array.
