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

Genetic imprinting specifies a germline marking that subsequently results in the repression of one or other parental allele at some point in development. Genetic manipulations to generate maternal and paternal duplications of specific chromosome regions have been used to screen almost the entire mouse genome for evidence of imprinting. As a result, 15 imprinting effects involving 10 regions on 6 different chromosomes have been detected that range from early embryonic lethalities to various growth and developmental defects seen only after birth. Genes with important roles in development therefore appear to be involved. Diverse studies have identified four imprinted genes, all of which show monoallelic expression in some, but not necessarily all, tissues. A correlation with methylation is indicated but the pattern of methylation is not consistent for each of the genes; methylation is therefore unlikely to be the imprinting signal. Methods being used to identify further imprinted genes are summarized and some of the difficulties posed are indicated.
