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

Even though the mammalian sex-determining gene Sry has been intensively studied for the two decades since its discovery, the regions outside the conserved HMG box DNA-binding domain have received less attention due to a lack of sequence conservation and of obvious structural/functional motifs. Here, we summarize the available evidence for function beyond the HMG box, identify the known and postulated biochemical functions of the non-HMG-box domains in sex determination, and present possible explanations for the puzzling diversity of these non-HMG-box domains.
