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

Nuclear lamin isoforms of vertebrates can be divided into two major classes. The B-type lamins are membrane associated throughout the cell cycle, whereas A-type lamins are recovered from mitotic cell homogenates in membrane-free fractions. A feature of oogenesis in birds and mammals is the nearly exclusive presence of B-type lamins in oocyte nuclear envelopes. In contrast, oocytes and early cleavage embryos of the amphibian Xenopus laevis are believed to contain a single lamin isoform, lamin LIII, which after nuclear envelope breakdown during meiotic maturation is reported to be completely soluble. Consequently, we have reexamined the lamin complement of Xenopus oocyte nuclear envelopes, egg extracts, and early embryos. An mAb (X223) specific for the homologous B-type lamins B2 of mouse and LII of Xenopus somatic cells (Höger, T., K. Zatloukal, I. Waizenegger, and G. Krohne. 1990. Chromosoma. 99:379-390) recognized a Xenopus oocyte nuclear envelope protein biochemically distinct from lamin LIII and very similar or identical to somatic cell lamin LII. Oocyte lamin LII was detectable in nuclear envelopes of early cleavage embryos. Immunoblotting of fractionated egg extracts revealed that approximately 20-23% of lamin LII and 5-7% of lamin LIII were membrane associated. EM immunolocalization demonstrated that membrane-bound lamins LII and LIII are associated with separate vesicle populations. These findings are relevant to the interpretation of nuclear reconstitution experiments using Xenopus egg extracts.
