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

The occurrence of mitotic recombination between repeated immunoglobulin mu gene constant (C mu) region sequences stably integrated at the haploid chromosomal immunoglobulin mu locus in murine hybridoma cells was investigated. Recombination events are detected as changes in hapten-specific immunoglobulin M production. Recombination occurs with high frequency (0.5 to 0.8%) by a mechanism consistent with gene conversion. A double-strand break repair-like mechanism is suggested by the finding that repair of a 2-bp deletion mutation and a 2-bp insertion mutation occurs with parity in a donor-directed manner. The results also suggest that the gene conversion process is directional in that the 5' C mu region sequence is preferentially converted.
