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

Haplopappus gracilis (Nutt.) Gray, one of the five known higher plants with a chromosome number of 2n = 4, was studied from a cytological point of view. The chromosome complement of this species was characterized by means of automated karyotype analysis. Moreover, the DNA methylation pattern and fluorochrome banding were determined and compared with cytological data present in the literature. DNA methylation distribution along metaphase chromosomes involved all chromosome territories evidenced by C-banding. Other methylated bands correlated positively with aceto-orcein-positive heterochromatic portions and/or with late replicating bands and/or fluorochrome bands. Some methylated bands showed differences between homologous chromosomes. These bands belonged partly to certain heterochromatic domains and partly to intercalary sites not defined by other standard banding techniques. Differences between the homologues were also indicated by our DNA content data obtained after DNase I digestion.
