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

Establishment of cohesion between sister chromatids in mitosis is one of the fundamental principles used by cells to ensure accuracy of the chromosome segregation. Cohesion allows spindle microtubules to generate tension across sister chromatids that acts as a signal that correct spindle-chromosome connections have been made. Cohesion is established by cohesin-a ring-shaped protein complex that is thought to link sister chromatids by physically entrapping their DNA. However, molecular mechanisms underlying cohesin interaction with DNA and its ability to form DNA-DNA interactions are not well understood. Here, we describe a protocol to reconstitute this process at the single-molecule level and investigate how single cohesin protein complexes establish DNA-DNA interactions and resist mechanical forces exerted on DNA.
