Zygotic Fluorescence Recovery After Photo-bleaching Analysis for Chromatin Looseness That Allows Full-term Development.
Article in Journal of visualized experiments : JoVE, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Live imaging is a powerful tool that allows for the analysis of molecular events during ontogenesis. Recently, chromatin looseness or openness has been shown to be involved in the cellular differentiation potential of pluripotent embryonic stem cells. It was previously reported that compared with embryonic stem cells, zygotes harbor an extremely loosened chromatin structure, suggesting its association with their totipotency. However, until now, it has not been addressed whether this extremely loosened/open chromatin structure is important for embryonic developmental potential. In the present study, to examine this hypothesis, an experimental system in which zygotes that were analyzed by fluorescence recovery after photo-bleaching can develop to term without any significant damage was developed. Importantly, this experimental system needs only a thermos-plate heater in addition to a confocal laser scanning microscope. The findings of this study suggest that fluorescence recovery after photo-bleaching analysis (FRAP) analysis can be used to investigate whether the molecular events in zygotic chromatin are important for full-term development.
