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

The intricacies of the 3D hierarchical organization of the genome have been approached by many creative modeling studies. The specific model/simulation technique combination defines and restricts the system and phenomena that can be investigated. We present the latest modeling developments and studies of the genome, involving models ranging from nucleosome systems and small polynucleosome arrays to chromatin fibers in the kb-range, chromosomes, and whole genomes, while emphasizing gene folding from first principles. Clever combinations allow the exploration of many interesting phenomena involved in gene regulation, such as nucleosome structure and dynamics, nucleosome-nucleosome stacking, polynucleosome array folding, protein regulation of chromatin architecture, mechanisms of gene folding, loop formation, compartmentalization, and structural transitions at the chromosome and genome levels. Gene-level modeling with full details on nucleosome positions, epigenetic factors, and protein binding, in particular, can in principle be scaled up to model chromosomes and cells to study fundamental biological regulation.
