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

Inversions are well-known structural chromosomal rearrangements in humans and pigs. Such rearrangements generally have no effect on the carrier's phenotype. However, the presence of an inversion may impair spermatogenesis and lead to the production of recombinant gametes, responsible for early miscarriages, stillbirth, or congenital abnormalities. This is the first report on meiotic segregation and pairing behavior of the inv(4)(p1.4;q2.3) pericentric inversion in pigs. Despite the very large size of the inverted fragment (76% of the chromosome), SpermFISH results showed that only 4.08% of the gametes produced by male heterozygotes were unbalanced. This low proportion could be explained by the particular behavior of normal and inverted SSC4 chromosomes during the initial stages of meiosis. Indeed, immunohistochemistry analyses revealed that heterosynapsis occurred in 92% of the cells, whereas synaptic adjustment was detected in a few spermatocytes only. Unexpectedly, the proportion of unbalanced gametes produced by female heterozygotes, estimated by FISH on metaphase II oocytes, was also very low (3.69%) and comparable to that in males. According to previous results for male and female meiotic processes, different proportions of recombinant gametes in the two genders would have been expected. Complementary studies should be carried out to further document the meiotic behavior of inversions in pigs.
