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

Gene loci on different chromosomes can preferentially colocalize in the cell nucleus. However, many of the mechanisms mediating this spatial proximity remain to be elucidated. The IgH locus on Chromosome 12 and the Myc locus on Chromosome 15 are a well-studied model for gene colocalization in murine B cells, where the two loci are positioned in close proximity at a higher than expected frequency. These gene loci are also partners in the chromosomal translocation that causes murine plasmacytoma and Burkitt's lymphoma. Because both Chromosome 12 and Chromosome 15 carry nucleolar organizer regions (NORs) in the most commonly studied mouse strains, we hypothesized that NOR-mediated tethering of the IgH and Myc loci to shared nucleoli could serve as a mechanism to drive IgH:Myc colocalization. Using mouse strains that naturally carry nucleolar organizer regions (NORs) on different sets of chromosomes, we establish that IgH and Myc are positioned proximal to nucleoli in a NOR dependent manner and show that their joint association with nucleoli significantly increases the frequency of IgH and Myc pairing. Thus we demonstrate that simple nucleolar tethering can increase the colocalization frequency of genes on NOR-bearing chromosomes.
