Vectors for ligation-independent construction of lacZ gene fusions and cloning of PCR products using a nicking endonuclease.
Article in Plasmid, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
Several ligation-independent cloning methods have been developed that offer advantages for construction of recombinant plasmids at high efficiency while minimizing cloning artifacts. Here we report new plasmid vectors that use the nicking endonuclease Nt.BspQI to generate extended single stranded tails for direct cloning of PCR products. The vectors include pLacCOs1, a ColE1-derivative plasmid imparting resistance to ampicillin, which allows facile construction of lacZ translational fusions and pKanCOs1, a pSC101-derivative cloning vector that imparts resistance to kanamycin, for cloning of PCR amplicons from genomic DNA as well as from ampicillin-based plasmids. We have successfully used these plasmids to directionally clone and characterize bacterial promoters that exhibit temperature regulated expression, as well as for cloning a variety of PCR products. In all cases, constructs with the correct configurations were generated at high efficiency and with a minimal number of manipulations. The cloning vectors can also be easily modified to incorporate additional reporter genes or to express epitope-tagged gene products.
