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

To elucidate mechanisms that regulate Vbeta rearrangement, we generated and analyzed mice with a V(D)J recombination reporter cassette of germline Dbeta-Jbeta segments inserted into the endogenous Vbeta14 locus (Vbeta14(Rep)). As a control, we first generated and analyzed mice with the same Dbeta-Jbeta cassette targeted into the generally expressed c-myc locus (c-myc(Rep)). Substantial c-myc(Rep) recombination occurred in both T and B cells and initiated concurrently with endogenous Dbeta to Jbeta rearrangements in thymocytes. In contrast, Vbeta14(Rep) recombination was restricted to T cells and initiated after endogenous Dbeta to Jbeta rearrangements, but concurrently with endogenous Vbeta14 rearrangements. Thus, the local chromatin environment imparts lineage and developmental stage-specific accessibility upon the inserted reporter. Although Vbeta14 rearrangements occur on only 5% of endogenous TCRbeta alleles, the Vbeta14(Rep) cassette underwent rearrangement on 80-90% of alleles, supporting the suggestion that productive coupling of accessible Vbeta14 segments and DJbeta complexes influence the frequency of Vbeta14 rearrangements. Strikingly, Vbeta14(Rep) recombination also occurs on TCRbeta alleles lacking endogenous Vbeta to DJbeta rearrangements, indicating that Vbeta14 accessibility per se is not subject to allelic exclusion.
