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

There is now substantial evidence that the eukaryotic nucleus consists of highly organized structures. Among such structures are transcription factories that consist of an ensemble of genes recruited by the RNA polymerase machinery. Here we suggest that antigen receptor variable regions are similarly organized. Specifically, we propose that the immunoglobulin heavy chain locus variable gene segments are anchored to the base of rosettes, wrapping around a cavity that contains the recombination machinery. We suggest that the folding of the chromatin fiber into rosettes underpins a crucial mechanism by which antigen receptor diversity is generated.
