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

Recurrent chromosomal translocations often lead to expression of fusion proteins associated with oncogenic transformation. To study translocations and downstream events, genome editing techniques have been developed to generate chromosomal translocations through non-homologous end joining of DNA double-strand breaks introduced at the two participating endogenous loci. However, the frequencies at which these events occur is usually too low to efficiently clone cells carrying the translocation. This article provides a detailed method using CRISPR-Cas9 technology and homology-directed repair to efficiently isolate cells harboring a chromosomal translocation. For an additional level of control, the resulting fusion protein is conditionally expressed to allow early events in oncogenic transformation to be studied. We focus on the generation of the EWSR1-WT1 fusion using human mesenchymal cells, which is associated with the translocation found in desmoplastic small round cell tumors.
