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

We have identified two types of structural elements in genomic DNA for annexin I that provide physical evidence of genetic events leading to conserved changes in gene structure. The sequence upstream of the transcribed region in human annexin I contained a rare, Alu-like repetitive element with flanking direct repeats, probably derived from the active BC200 gene via germline retroposition. Nucleotide substitutions in this BC200 insert relative to the 7SL gene and its absence in rodent annexins I identified it as a recent primate pseudogene. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the BC200 gene represents a new clade of primate Alu evolution that branched near the time of appearance of the progenitor to the free left Alu monomer, FLAM-C. Separate analysis identified a Z-DNA motif in pigeon annexin I intron 7 that may represent the vestigial recombination site involved in primordial assembly of the annexin tetrad. These distinct structural features in annexin I genes provide insight into the evolution of Alu repeats and the mechanism of annexin tetrad formation.
