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

Epilepsy is a dominant trait in EL mice, a model for human complex partial seizures. We recently mapped the major gene, El-1, to chromosome 9 near the predicted location for the ceruloplasmin (Cp) gene. We now present evidence for a partial duplication in the Cp gene in EL mice. This Cp duplication is coinherited with seizures in backcross generations and is associated with enhanced expression of Cp mRNA and increased Cp oxidase activity. Moreover, the duplication is associated with an enhanced frequency of double recombinants, simulating negative interference. The findings are relevant to the basic mechanisms of epilepsy and to theories of genetic recombination and gene mapping.
