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

Satellite repeats make up a large fraction of the genomes of many higher eukaryotes. Until recently these sequences were viewed as molecular parasites with few functions. Drosophila melanogaster and related species have a wealth of diverse satellite repeats. Comparative studies of Drosophilids have been instrumental in understanding how these rapidly evolving sequences change and move. Remarkably, satellite repeats have been found to modulate gene expression and mediate genetic conflicts between chromosomes and between closely related fly species. This suggests that satellites play a key role in speciation. We have taken advantage of the depth of research on satellite repeats in flies to review the known functions of these sequences and consider their central role in evolution and gene expression.
