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

Crossovers play a critical role in ensuring correct reductional segregation of homologous chromosomes in the first meiotic division. Crossing over is initiated by formation of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), but the number of DSBs is greater than the number of crossovers. Which recombination sites become crossovers, versus being repaired as non-crossovers, is not random, but is subject to several crossover patterning phenomena, including crossover assurance and crossover interference. One current model for crossover designation proposes that crossover-associated RING finger proteins (CORs) undergo the biophysical process of coarsening, in which larger accumulations continue to get larger and smaller accumulations go away. Genetic and cytological studies of the three CORs in
