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

We here report the genomic organisation of the grey mouse lemur (Microcebus murinus) MHC class II DQ and DR region based on BAC clone analysis. The sequenced Mimu-MHC haplotype spans 343 kb and encompasses the genes TAP2, DOB, DQB, DQA, DRB, DRA, BTNL2 and a further BTNL gene. The DQ and DR genes of this haplotype are not duplicated. Mimu-DOB is not transcribed and represents a pseudogene due to deletions and premature stop codons. Analysis of BAC clone DNA, a cDNA sample and eight genomic DNA samples suggests that Mimu-DRB, Mimu-DQA and Mimu-DQB are highly polymorphic with the majority of peptide-binding residues being affected by polymorphisms. In contrast, Mimu-DRA is moderately polymorphic, and the variable amino acid positions are not part of the peptide-binding region. Phylogenetic analysis of Mimu-DQA and Mimu-DQB and other primate DQA and DQB genes indicates that duplication of DQA and DQB loci occurred in Anthropoidea after the split from Strepsirrhini.
