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

A DNA segment from the human genome with information for myosin heavy chain (MHC) was isolated from a human genomic DNA library cloned in lambda Charon 4A phages. The isolation was accomplished by a myosin cDNA probe obtained from rabbit heart muscle mRNA (Sinha et al. 1982). The selected human DNA clone, designated lambda gMHC1, contains a genomic DNA fragment of about 14 kilobase pairs. The transcriptional polarity of this DNA was determined. The 5'-end of the gene is missing from the cloned fragment. This human gene exhibits sequence homology to MHC DNA of rabbit and chicken, but not to an MHC sequence of nematode. The isolated gene fragment is a member of the human MHC multi-gene family, which is presumed to consist of probably more than ten separate sarcomeric MHC genes per haploid genome.
