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

Paracentric inversions (PAIs) are structural chromosomal rearrangements generally considered to be harmless. To date, only a few studies have been performed concerning the meiotic segregation of these rearrangements, using either the human-hamster fertilization system or fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with centromeric or telomeric DNA probes. To improve the assessment of imbalances in PAI, we present a new strategy based on FISH assay using multiple bacterial artificial chromosome probes, which allow a precise localization of chromosome break points and the identification of all meiotic products in human sperm. Sperm samples of three cases with PAI were investigated: an inv(5)(q13.2q33.1), an inv(9)(q21.2q34.13) and an inv(14)(q23.2q32.13). The frequencies of spermatozoa with inverted chromosomes were 44.7% in inv(5), 42.7% in inv(9) and 46.7% in inv(14). The global incidences of unbalanced complements were 9.7, 12.6 and 3.7% in inv(5), inv(9) and inv(14), respectively. This report is the first study providing a detailed description of meiotic segregation patterns in human sperm by using a sperm FISH approach. This study demonstrates that the detailed analysis of segregation in PAI may provide important data for both genetic analysis and counseling of inversion carriers.
