BAC Recombineering and Transgenesis to Study Cell Polarity and Polarized Tissue Morphogenesis in Mice.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Planar cell polarity (PCP) signaling plays a critical role in coordinating cell polarity during various organogenesis processes in mammals, and its disruption is causal to numerous congenital disorders in humans. To elucidate its actions in mammals, mouse genetics is an indispensable approach. Given that both gain- and loss-of-function of many PCP genes often cause similar defects, the standard mouse transgenic approach may not always be ideal for studying PCP genes in their wild-type and mutant forms. Here we describe using BAC (bacterial artificial chromosomes) transgenes as a versatile and effective alternative. Transgenes made from BACs, which are genomic clones 100-200 kb in size, can more faithful recapitulate endogenous gene expression levels and patterns. Bacterial based recombination system can be used to efficiently introduce mutations, fluorescent protein tags, and LoxP sites for conditional expressions. Cre can also be inserted into BACs to map the contribution of cells expressing any PCP gene of interest, and study PCP mediated tissue morphogenesis.
