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

Throughout the cell cycle, the histones remain associated with DNA, but the repertoire of proteins associated with the chromatin fiber continuously changes. The chromatin interaction of HMGNs, a family of nucleosome binding proteins that modulates the structure and activity of chromatin, during the cell cycle is controversial. Immunofluorescence studies demonstrated that HMGNs are not associated with chromatin, whereas live cell imaging indicated that they are present in mitotic chromosomes. To resolve this controversy, we examined the organization of wild-type and mutated HMGN1 and HMGN2 proteins in the cell nucleus by using immunofluorescence studies, live cell imaging, gel mobility shift assays, and bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC). We find that during interphase, HMGNs bind specifically to nucleosomes and form homodimeric complexes that yield distinct BiFC signals. In metaphase, the nucleosomal binding domain of the protein is inactivated, and the proteins associate with chromatin with low affinity as monomers, and they do not form specific complexes. Our studies demonstrate that the mode of binding of HMGNs to chromatin is cell cycle dependent.
