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

Here we describe a novel, spontaneous, 4035 basepairs long deletion in the DNA cross-link repair 1C (Dclre1c)-locus in C57BL/6-mice, which leads to loss of exons 10 and 11 of the gene encoding for Artemis, a protein involved into V(D) J-recombination of antigen receptors of T and B cells. While several spontaneous mutations of Artemis have been described to cause SCID in humans, in mice, only targeted deletions by knockout technology are known to cause the same phenotype so far. The deletion we observed causes a loss of Artemis function in the C57BL/6 strain and, consequently, the absence of T and B cells, in presence of normal numbers of NK cells and cells of the myeloid lineage. Thus, for the first time we present T(-)B(-)NK(+) severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) phenotype after spontaneously occurring modification of Artemis gene in mice. Our mouse model may serve as a valuable tool to study mechanisms as well as potential therapies of SCID in humans.
