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

The thymoma-prone BUF/Mna rat is a useful model for human thymoma. Thymoma develops spontaneously in these rats at an incidence of nearly 100%. At pre-thymoma age, BUF/Mna rats have extremely large thymuses when compared with those of rats of the other strains, suggesting the presence of genes that regulate the thymus enlargement. We performed linkage study to identify the genetic loci associated with thymus enlargement in {(WKY/NCrj x BUF/Mna) F1 x BUF/Mna} backcross rats. Linkage study showed the significant associations between thymus size and markers on Chromosomes (Chrs) 1 and 13, suggesting the presence of two genes, Ten-1 and Ten-2, which regulate the thymus enlargement. Ten-1 was located between myosin light chain, muscle 2 (MYL2) and D1Mgh11 loci on Chr 1, and Ten-2 was located between synaptotagmin II (SYT2) and D13N2 loci on Chr 13.
