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 dynamics of genomic loci pairs and their interactions are essential for transcriptional regulation and genome organization. However, a robust method for tracking pairwise genomic loci in living cells is lacking. Here we developed a multicolor DNA labeling system, mParSpot (multicolor ParSpot), to track pairs of genomic loci and their interactions in living cells. The mParSpot system is derived from the ParB/ParS in the parABS system and Noc/NBS in its paralogous nucleoid occlusion system. The insertion of 16 base-pair palindromic ParSs or NBSs into the genomic locus allows the cognate binding protein ParB or Noc to spread kilobases of DNA around ParSs or NBSs for loci-specific visualization. We tracked two loci with a genomic distance of 53 kilobases and measured their spatial distance over time. Using the mParSpot system, we labeled the promoter and terminator of the MSI2 gene span 423 kb and measured their spatial distance. We also tracked the promoter and terminator dynamics of the MUC4 gene in living cells. In sum, the mParSpot is a robust and sensitive DNA labeling system for tracking genomic interactions in space and time under physiological or pathological contexts.
