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

Complete IgHC gene rearrangement occurs only in B cells in a stage-specific and ordered manner. We used gene targeting to reposition a distal V(H) gene segment to a region just 5' of the D(H) gene cluster and found its activation to be highly dependent on the chromosomal domain within which it resides. The targeted V(H) gene segment rearranged at a higher frequency than its endogenous counterpart, its rearrangement was no longer ordered, and its ability to be silenced by allelic exclusion was lost. Additionally, the targeted V(H) gene segment lost lineage specificity, as VDJ(H) rearrangement was observed in thymocytes. These data suggest that locus contraction, mimicked by proximal targeting, can override any regulation imposed by DNA sequences immediately surrounding V(H) gene segments.
