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

In the last 20 years, tools derived from DNA transposons have made major contributions to genetic studies from gene delivery to gene discovery. Various complementary and fairly ubiquitous DNA vehicles have been developed. Although many transposons are efficient DNA vehicles, they appear to have limited ability to target specific sequences, since all that is required at the integration locus is the presence of a short 2- to 4-bp sequence. Consequently, insertions mediated by transposon-based vectors occur somewhat randomly. In the past 5 years, strategies have emerged to enhance the site-specificity of transposon-based vectors, and to avoid random integrations. The first proposes that new target site specificity could be grafted onto a transposase by adding a new DNA-binding domain. Alternative strategies consist of indirectly targeting either the transposase or the transposon to a chosen genomic locus. The most important information available about each strategy are presented, and limitations and future prospects are discussed.
