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
backgroundTranslocated chromosomal duplications occur spontaneously in many organisms; segmental duplications of large chromosomal regions are expected to result in phenotypic changes because of gene dosage effects. Therefore, experimentally generated segmental duplications in targeted chromosomal regions can be used to study phenotypic changes and determine the functions of unknown genes in these regions. Previously, we performed tandem duplication of a targeted chromosomal segment in
resultsDouble-strand breaks were introduced into chromosomes of parental strains by treating protoplast cells with I-SceI meganuclease. Subsequently, strains were generated by nonreciprocal translocation of a 1.4-Mb duplicated region of chromosome 2 to the end of chromosome 4. Another strain, containing a triplicated region of chromosome 2, was generated by translocating a 1.4-Mb region of chromosome 2 onto the ends of chromosomes 4 and 7. Phenotypic analyses of the strains containing segmental duplication or triplication of chromosome 2 showed remarkable increases in protease and amylase activities in solid-state cultures. Protease activity was further increased in strains containing the duplication and triplication after overexpression of the transcriptional activator of proteases
conclusionIn this study, we performed translocated chromosomal duplications and triplications of a 1.4-Mb targeted region of chromosome 2. Strains containing a duplication of chromosome 2 showed significant increases in protease and amylase activities; these enzymatic activities were further increased in the strain containing a triplication of chromosome 2. This indicates that segmental duplications of chromosomes enhance gene-dosage effects, and that the resulting phenotypes play important phenotypic roles in
