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

Minisatellites have been implicated with chromatin organization and gene regulation, but mRNA transcripts tagged with these elements have not been systematically characterized. The aim of the present study was to gain an insight into the transcribing genes associated with consensus of 33.6 repeat loci across the tissues in water buffalo, Bubalus bubalis. Using cDNA from spermatozoa and eight different somatic tissues and an oligo primer based on two units of consensus of 33.6 repeat loci (5' CCTCCAGCCCTCCTCCAGCCCT 3'), we conducted minisatellite-associated sequence amplification (MASA) and identified 29 mRNA transcripts. These transcripts were cloned and sequenced. Blast search of the individual mRNA transcript revealed sequence homologies with various transcribing genes and contigs in the database. Using real-time PCR, we detected the highest expression of nine mRNA transcripts in spermatozoa and one each in liver and lung. Further, 21 transcripts were found to be conserved across the species; seven were specific to bovid whereas one was exclusive to the buffalo genome. The present work demonstrates innate potentials of MASA in accessing several functional genes simultaneously without screening the cDNA library. This approach may be exploited for the development of tissue-specific mRNA fingerprints in the context of genome analysis and functional and comparative genomics.
