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

Myosin heavy chain (MHC) genes are expressed as several distinct isoforms in a tissue- and stage-specific manner; three skeletal muscle MHC isoforms appear sequentially during development. We have isolated cDNA clones, identified by RNA blot hybridization and by nucleotide sequence determination as coding for portions of the embryonic (pMHC2.2), perinatal (pMHC16.2A), and alpha(V1) cardiac (pMHC141 and pMHC101) MHC isoforms. These four probes and the adult skeletal MHC probe (pMHC32) have been used on Southern blots of genomic DNA to detect restriction fragment length polymorphisms defining the alleles for these genes in mouse species Mus musculus and Mus spretus. In this way, we followed the segregation of skeletal and cardiac MHC genes in 42 offspring resulting from an interspecies backcross. We found that the embryonic, perinatal, and adult skeletal MHC genes are clustered on chromosome 11 near the locus nude, the skeletal and cardiac MHC genes do not cosegregate, and the alpha(V1) cardiac MHC gene is located on chromosome 14 close to Np-1. This result is in contrast to that for other contractile protein genes such as the alkali myosin light chain and the actin multigene families, which are dispersed in the genome.
