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

Restriction landmark genomic scanning using methylation-sensitive endonucleases (RLGS-M) is a newly developed powerful method for systematic detection of DNA methylation. Using this method, we scanned mouse brain genomic DNAs from various developmental stages to detect the transcriptionally active regions. This approach is based on the assumption that CpG methylation, particularly of CpG islands, might be associated with gene transcriptional regulation. Genomic DNAs were prepared from telencephalons of 9.5-, 13.5- and 16.5-day embryos, 1- and 10-day neonates and adults, followed by subjecting them to RLGS-M and comparing their patterns with each other or with that of the adult liver. We used NotI as a methylation-sensitive restriction enzyme and surveyed the methylation states of 2,600 NotI sites, almost of which should correspond to gene loci. Although almost all RLGS spots (98%) were present constantly at every developmental stages, only a few percent of spots reproducibly appeared and disappeared at different developmental stages of the brain (44 spots, 1.7%) and some were tissue-specific (10 spots, 0.7%). These data suggest that DNA methylation associated with gene transcription is a well-programmed event during the central nervous system (CNS) development. Thus, RLGS-M can offer a means for detecting systematically the genes in which the state of DNA methylation changes during development of the higher organism.
