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

Regulation of replication timing has been a focus of many studies. It has been shown that numerous chromosomal regions switch their replication timing on cell differentiation in Drosophila and mice. However, it is not clear which features of these regions are essential for such regulation. In this study, we examined the organization of late underreplicated regions (URs) of the Drosophila melanogaster genome. When compared with their flanks, these regions showed decreased gene density. A detailed view revealed that these regions originate from unusual combination of short genes and long intergenic spacers. Furthermore, gene expression study showed that this pattern is mostly contributed by short testis-specific genes abundant in the URs. Based on these observations, we developed a genome scanning algorithm and identified 110 regions possessing similar gene density and transcriptional profiles. According to the published data, replication of these regions has been significantly shifted towards late S-phase in two Drosophila cell lines and in polytene chromosomes. Our results suggest that genomic organization of the underreplicated areas of Drosophila polytene chromosomes may be associated with the regulation of their replication timing.
