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

Although all nucleated cells within a multicellular organism contain a complete copy of the genome, cell identity relies on the expression of a specific subset of genes. Therefore, when cells divide they must not only copy their genome to their daughters, but also ensure that the pattern of gene expression present before division is restored. While the carrier of this epigenetic memory has been a topic of much research and debate, post-translational modifications of histone proteins have emerged in the vanguard of candidates. In this paper we examine the mechanisms by which histone post-translational modifications are propagated through DNA replication and cell division, and we critically examine the evidence that they can also act as vectors of epigenetic memory. Finally, we consider ways in which epigenetic memory might be disrupted by interfering with the mechanisms of DNA replication.
