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

We evaluate the effect of target site transcription on gene targeting in cultured human fibrosarcoma cells. A number of cell lines that harbored a plasmid recombination substrate within their chromosomal DNA were created. Gene targeting frequency was then measured at these different loci in the presence and absence of an agent that stimulated target site transcription. We observed that gene targeting was significantly enhanced by RNA transcription. The magnitude of transcription-stimulated gene targeting varied from 3-fold to > 20-fold. No increase in gene targeting was observed, however, when transcription proceeded away from, rather than through, the recombination site. Transcription-stimulated gene targeting was also observed when single-stranded plasmid vectors complementary to either the coding or template strand were used as recombination substrates. Our results indicate that gene targeting, like other forms of DNA recombination, can be stimulated by target site transcription. The implications of our observations on current models of transcription-stimulated recombination are discussed.
