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

Mitotic genome folding, or mitotic chromosome assembly, is essential for the faithful segregation of genetic information into daughter cells. While this process was once thought to be highly complex, requiring a myriad of protein components, recent studies have begun to revise this conventional view. An emerging view is that the core reaction of mitotic genome folding is mediated by a dynamic interplay of a limited number of structural components, namely, condensins, topoisomerase II (topo II), and histones. Condensins and topo II are two distinct classes of ATPases that cooperate to actively form and manipulate DNA loops, both accumulating at the central axial regions of the resulting chromosomes. In contrast, nucleosomes and linker histones help to compact DNA loops by cooperating and competing with the action of these ATPases. In this review, I will focus on the recent advances in the field, with an emphasis on the mechanistic aspects of mitotic genome folding.
