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

Germ-line transcription of an antigen receptor gene segment is an essential feature of the targeting mechanism for DNA double-strand break formation during physiological DNA rearrangements in lymphocytes. Alterations in chromatin structure have long been postulated to regulate accessibility of recombinase activities for lymphocytes to generate antibody diversity; however, whether or not germ-line transcripts are the cause or the effect of chromatin changes at antigen receptor loci is still not clear. Methylation of histone H3 at lysine 4 is one of the most well-studied histone post-translational modifications yet we have only recently begun to understand the significance of the MLL-like H3K4 methyltransferase activities in lymphocyte function. While it is clear during lymphocyte development that H3K4me3 plays a critical role in targeting and stimulating RAG1/2 recombinase activity for V(D)J recombination, recent work suggests roles for this histone mark and different MLL-like complexes in mature B cells during immunoglobulin class-switch recombination. In this review, we focus our discussion to advances on how MLL-like complexes and H3K4 methylation may function during the germ-line transcription and recombinase targeting steps of class-switch recombination. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Chromatin in time and space.
