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

MCM3 acetylase (MCM3AP) and germinal-centre associated nuclear protein (GANP) are transcribed from the same locus and are therefore confused in databases because the MCM3 acetylase DNA sequence is contained entirely within the much larger GANP sequence and the entire MCM3AP sequence is identical to the carboxy terminus of GANP. Thus, the MCM3AP and GANP genes are read in the same reading frame and MCM3AP is an N-terminally truncated region of GANP. However, we show here that MCM3AP and GANP are different proteins, occupying different locations in the cell and transcribed from different promoters. Intriguingly, a promoter for MCM3AP lies within an intron of GANP. This report is an interesting example in nature of two separate gene products from the same locus that perform two entirely different functions in the cell. Therefore, to avoid further confusion, they should now be referred to as separate but overlapping genes.
