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

Higher eukaryotic cell nuclei are highly compartmentalized into bodies and structural assemblies of specialized functions. Nuclear speckles/IGCs are one of the most prominent nuclear bodies, yet their functional significance remains largely unknown. Recent advances in sequence-based mapping of nuclear genome organization now provide genome-wide analysis of chromosome organization relative to nuclear speckles. Here we review older microscopy-based studies on a small number of genes with the new genomic mapping data suggesting a significant fraction of the genome is almost deterministically positioned near nuclear speckles. Both microscopy and genomic-based approaches support the concept of the nuclear speckle periphery as a major active chromosomal compartment which may play an important role in fine-tuning gene regulation.
