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

Background: Identification of transposons without close homologs is still a difficult task. IS630/Tc1/mariner transposons, classified into a superfamily, are probably the most widespread DNA transposons in nature. Tc1/mariner transposons have been discovered in animals, plants, and filamentous fungi, however, not in yeast. Results: In the present study, we report the discovery of two intact Tc1 transposons in yeast and filamentous fungi, respectively. The first one, named Tc1-OP1 (DD40E), represents Tc1 transposons in Conclusion: Tc1-OP1 is not only the first reported Tc1 transposon in yeast, but also the first reported nonclassical Tc1 transposon. Tc1-OP1 is the largest of IS630/Tc1/mariner transposons reported to date and significantly different from others. Notably, Tc1-OP1 encodes a serine-rich domain and a transposase, extending the current knowledge of Tc1 transposons. The phylogenetic relationships of Tc1-OP1, Tc1-MP1 and IS630-AB1 indicated that these transposons had evolved from a common ancestor. Tc1-OP1, Tc1-MP1 and IS630-AB1 can be used as reference sequences to facilitate the identification of IS630/Tc1/mariner transposons. More Tc1/mariner transposons will be identified in yeast, following our discovery.
