Two early replicated, developmentally controlled genes of Physarum display different patterns of DNA replication by two-dimensional agarose gel electrophoresis.
Article in Chromosoma, 1993. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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 nature of replication origins in eukaryotic chromosomes has been examined in some detail only in yeast, Drosophila, and mammalian cells. We have used highly synchronous cultures of plasmodia of the myxomycete Physarum and two-dimensional agarose gel electrophoresis to examine replication of two developmentally controlled, early replicated genes over time in S-phase. A single, discrete origin of replication was found within 4.8 kb of the LAV1-5 gene, which encodes a homolog of profilin. In contrast, the LAV1-2 gene appears to be surrounded by several origins. Two origins were identified within a 15 kb chromosomal domain and appear to be inefficiently used. Replication forks collide at preferred sites within this domain. These terminating structures are long lived, persisting for at least 2 h of the 3 h S-phase. Analysis of restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) within the LAV1-2 domain indicates that replication of alleles on different parental chromosomes is a highly coordinated process. Our studies of the these two early replicated, plasmodium-specific genes indicate that both a fixed, narrow origin region and a broader zone containing two closely spaced origins of DNA replication occur in Physarum.
