Intercalary heterochromatin in polytene chromosomes of Drosophila melanogaster.
Review in Chromosoma, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 papers.
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.
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
Intercalary heterochromatin consists of extended chromosomal domains which are interspersed throughout the euchromatin and contain silent genetic material. These domains comprise either clusters of functionally unrelated genes or tandem gene duplications and possibly stretches of noncoding sequences. Strong repression of genetic activity means that intercalary heterochromatin displays properties that are normally attributable to classic pericentric heterochromatin: high compaction, late replication and underreplication in polytene chromosomes, and the presence of heterochromatin-specific proteins. Late replication and underreplication occurs when the suppressor of underreplication protein is present in intercalary heterochromatic regions. Intercalary heterochromatin underreplication in polytene chromosomes results in free double-stranded ends of DNA molecules; ligation of these free ends is the most likely mechanism for ectopic pairing between intercalary heterochromatic and pericentric heterochromatic regions. No support has been found for the view that the frequency of chromosome aberrations is elevated in intercalary heterochromatin.
