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

Cohesin, a eukaryotic SMC complex, plays a crucial role in mediating sister chromatid cohesion and organizing the genome during interphase. To fulfill these functions, cohesin must act as both a stable guardian of genome integrity, capable of holding sister chromatids together for decades in some cell types, and a dynamic molecular machine that rapidly forms and remodels DNA loops in response to chromatin changes. These processes involve a complex series of interactions between cohesin and its many regulatory subunits, and DNA, the details of which are still under investigation. Here, we describe methods used routinely in our laboratory for studying transient protein-protein interactions and protein-DNA interactions, both in vivo and in vitro, using site-specific cysteine-cysteine crosslinking.
