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 nucleosome core particle is the fundamental unit of chromatin structure and at its heart is the histone core octamer composed of histones H4, H3, H2A and H2B. To understand the structure dynamics and function of chromatin it is important to be able to probe the structures of its component parts in a variety of ways. Site directed spin-labeling technology has enabled the insertion of nitroxide spin labels at positions on the surface of the H3 histones and these have been assembled into histone octamers. Pulsed EPR, and in particular the PELDOR or DEER experiments have been performed and provided extremely well defined dipolar oscillations, over long time periods. From the PELDOR data we have been able to derive distance distributions of between 60 and 70 A. The distances measured, are among the longest well-defined PELDOR measurements on a biological system to date, spanning the width of the histone core particle and approaching what has been often defined as the limit of distance measurement by this technique. Relatively minor differences to the crystal structures have been observed.
