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

In order to map the gene that is responsible for the DNA-repair defect in severe combined immune deficient (SCID) mice, a mixture of microcells independently isolated from mouse A9 cells containing pSV2neo-tagged human chromosomes 5, 7, 8, 9, 11, 15, 18 or 20 were fused with SCID fibroblast cell lines SCVA2 and SCVA4, which were originally established from lung tissue of the C.B.17-scid/scid mouse by SV40 virus transfection. After irradiation with 60Co gamma-rays and selection with antibiotic G418, 12 independent clones were obtained, of which 4 contained an intact chromosome 8, 3 clones contained a deleted chromosome 8 [del(8)q22-->qter or del(8)q23--> qter] and remaining 5 had no detectable or specific human chromosome. We further independently transferred a single human chromosome 8 or 11 into the SCVA cells via microcell fusion, and examined the radiation sensitivity of the microcell hybrids. Complementation of the radiation sensitivity was correlated with the presence of human chromosome 8 in microcell hybrids, whereas no correlation was observed in clones following the transfer of human chromosome 11. Thus, the results indicate that human chromosome 8 restored high sensitivity to ionizing radiation. A number of subclones that were radiation resistant or sensitive were isolated from the microcell hybrids. The concordance of the radiation sensitivity with the presence or absence of specific DNA fragments on chromosome 8 indicates that the human gene is located on the centromeric region of chromosome 8, i.e., 8p11.1--> q11.1.
