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

In the present work, we found that the SUUR protein is required for the SU(VAR)3-9 enzyme to bind to the salivary gland polytene chromosomes. The SuUR mutation results in loss of SU(VAR)3-9 on the chromosomes, whereas artificial expression of the SuUR gene restores its binding. The SUUR protein is also involved in methylation of the residues H3K9 and H3K27. However, mono-, di-, and tri-methylated forms of H3K9 and H3K27 behave differently in various chromosomal domains in response to the SuUR mutation. Euchromatin and chromosome 4 are almost completely deprived of mono-, di-, and tri-methylation of H3K9. In the chromocenter, mono-methylation is reduced, di-methylation shows no noticeable changes, and tri-methylation is lost. Furthermore, mono- and di-methylation of H3K27 are not influenced by the SuUR mutation, whereas tri-methylation is lost in the chromocenter. Artificial expression of the SuUR gene on the SuUR (-) background restores the pattern of methylated residues characteristic for the wild type.
