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

Linkage disequilibrium was observed between newly identified DNA polymorphisms and a previously described protein polymorphism for plasminogen. This finding implies that the two types of polymorphisms describe variation at the same locus. The plasminogen gene was mapped to chromosomal bands 6q26-q27 using somatic-cell hybrids and in situ hybridization. Linkage disequilibrium between protein and DNA polymorphisms has utility in substituting for protein typing in instances where only DNA samples are available, such as from deceased individuals or extinct species. The technique may be useful when cross-hybridizing sequences make the interpretation of Southern blot patterns difficult and may obviate the need for extensive DNA sequencing. In some cases, disequilibrium may provide information useful for determining the appropriate direction for chromosome walks from a marker locus to a target locus.
