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

Vigilin is an RNA-binding protein localized to both the cytoplasm and the nucleus and has been previously implicated in heterochromatin formation and chromosome segregation. We demonstrate here that the C-terminal domain of human vigilin binds to the histone methyltransferase SUV39H1 in vivo. This association is independent of RNA and maps to a site on vigilin that is not involved in its interaction with several other known protein partners. Cells that express high levels of the C-terminal fragment display chromosome segregation defects, and ChIP analyses show changes in the status of pericentric beta-satellite and rDNA chromatin from heterochromatic to more euchromatic form. Finally, a cell line with inducible expression of the vigilin C-terminal fragment displays inducible alterations in beta-satellite chromatin. These and other results lead us to present a new model for vigilin-mediated, RNA-induced gene silencing.
