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

The cynomolgus macaque (Macaca fascicularis) is currently used as an animal model in various fields of immunology especially in the development of innovative vaccines for the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases. The polymorphism of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) influences the development of adaptive immune responses and it is crucial to characterize the polymorphism of cynomolgus MHC genes. We present here a systematic study of the MHC class II haplotypes in the Filipino macaque population. By the study of a large sample of Filipino animals (N = 353), we have characterized 18 MHC class II haplotypes by means of genotyping seven microsatellites. The animals were DRB genotyped by means of PCR-SSO or DGGE-sequencing on genomic amplified fragments. We cloned and sequenced the complementary DNA (cDNA) of DQA, DQB, DPA, and DPB genes of 117 animals. Combining the microsatellite genotyping and cDNA characterized in the 117 animals, we defined genetic association between the cDNA and the microsatellites and characterized 18 MHC class II haplotypes. For 104 animals out of the 353 studied, the presence of a recombinant haplotype was highly probable. Thirty-four percent of recombination was located in 256 kb segment between D6S2876 and D6S2747 microsatellites, a region encompassing several hot spots of recombination in the human MHC.
