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

Chromosome translocations are the most severe form of genome defect. Translocations represent the end product of a series of cellular mistakes and they form after cells suffer multiple DNA double strand breaks (DSBs), which evade the surveillance mechanisms that usually eliminate them. Rather than being accurately repaired, translocating DSBs are misjoined to form aberrant fusion chromosomes. Although translocations have been extensively characterized using cytological methods and their pathological relevance in cancer and numerous other diseases is well established, how translocations form in the context of the intact cell nucleus is poorly understood. A combination of imaging approaches and biochemical methods to probe genome architecture and chromatin structure suggest that the spatial organization of the genome and features of chromatin, including sequence properties, higher order chromatin structure and histone modifications, are key determinants of translocation formation.
