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

Activation Induced Deaminase (AID) triggers the antigen-driven antibody diversification processes through its ability to edit DNA. AID dependent DNA damage is also the cause of genetic alterations often found in mature B cell tumors. A number of splice variants of AID have been identified, for which a role in the modulation of its activity has been hypothesized. We have thus tested two of these splice variants, which we find catalytically inactive, for their ability to modulate the activity of endogenous AID in CH12F3 cells, a murine lymphoma cell line in which Class Switch Recombination (CSR) can be induced. In contrast to full-length AID, neither these splice variants or a catalytically impaired AID mutant affect the efficiency of Class Switch Recombination. Thus, while a role for these splice variants at the RNA level remains possible, it is unlikely that they exert any regulatory effect on the function of AID.
