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

This report describes a fluorescence in situ hybridization approach to chromosome staining that facilitates detection of structural aberrations and allows discrimination between dicentric chromosomes and symmetrically translocated chromosomes. In this approach, selected whole chromosomes are stained in one color by hybridization with composite probes whose elements have DNA sequence homology along the length of the target chromosomes. In addition, all chromosomes are counterstained with a DNA specific dye so that structural aberrations between target and non-target chromosomes are clearly visible. Discrimination between dicentric chromosomes and symmetrical translocations is accomplished by hybridization with a second probe that is homologous to DNA sequences found in the centromeric region of all chromosomes. The centromeric marker is visualized in a different color, so that the number of centromeres per aberrant chromosome can be rapidly determined in the microscope by changing excitation and fluorescence filters.
