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

The alpha i2 subunit of the inhibitory heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding proteins is highly conserved in mammals and is expressed in all cell types, but its exact function is not yet defined. We have investigated the role of this protein by producing embryonic stem (ES) cells lacking a functional alpha i2 gene. These alpha i2-null cell lines regulate adenylyl cyclase and grow and differentiate in vitro the same as wild-type ES cells. Homologous recombination was used to sequentially inactivate both copies of the alpha i2 gene. The first allele was inactivated by insertion of a neomycin-resistance gene. We modified the hygromycin B-resistance gene for improved expression in ES cells and used this gene to inactivate the remaining normal allele. The techniques used should be generally applicable to other genes whether or not they are expressed in ES cells.
