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

Genomic imprinting is the parent-of-origin specific monoallelic expression of genes that result from complex epigenetic interactions. It is often achieved by monoallelic 5-methylcytosine, resulting in the formation of differentially methylated regions (DMRs). These show a bias towards oocyte-derived methylation and survive reprogramming in the pre-implantation embryo. Imprinting is widespread in the human placenta. We have recently performed whole-genome screens for novel imprinted placenta-specific germline DMRs (gDMRs) by comparing methylomes of gametes, blastocysts and various somatic tissues, including placenta. We observe that, unlike conventional imprinting, for which methylation at gDMRs is observed in all tissues, placenta-specific imprinting is associated with transient gDMRs, present only in the pre-implantation embryo and extra-embryonic lineages.
