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 Y-chromosome of mice has a crucial role in sex determination, gender ratio equilibrium as well as male fertility, and is moreover involved in behavioral, immunological, and cardiovascular traits. During routine short tandem repeat genotyping of C57BL/6 substrains, a unique deletion on the Y-chromosome long arm of males from the commercially available inbred substrain C57BL/6JBomTac was identified. In this study, the deletion was confirmed by fluorescence in situ hybridization on metaphase spreads and the extent of the deletion was assessed using position-specific genetic markers. It covers 40 Mbp of the Y-chromosome long arm, ranging from at least 6.57 to 46.73 Mbp. Therefore, C57BL/6JBomTac might be a valuable model system for Y-chromosome research. A deletion spanning almost half of the Y-chromosome long arm should not be neglected regarding the evaluation of scientific experiments. Our data are in line with others that it is of major importance that the usage of mice strains requires the exact nomenclature including the name of the substrain.
