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 past decade, the advent of microarray technologies has allowed functional genomic studies of male germ cell development, resulting in the identification of genes governing various processes. A major limitation with conventional gene expression microarray is that results obtained are biased due to gene probe design. The gene probes for expression microarrays are usually represented by a small number of probes located at the 3' end of a transcript. Tiling microarrays eliminate such issue by interrogating the genome in an unbiased fashion through probes tiled across the entire genome. These arrays provide higher genomic resolution and allow the identification of novel transcripts. To reveal the complexity of the genomic landscape of developing male germ cells, we applied tiling microarray to evaluate the transcriptome in spermatogonial cells. Over 50% of all known mouse genes are expressed during testicular development. More than 47% of the transcripts are uncharacterized. The results suggested that the transcription machinery in spermaotogonial cells is more complex than previously envisioned.
