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

Sequence analysis of recombination break points has defined a 377-bp recombination hot spot within the anthocyanin 1 (a1) gene. One-fifth of all recombination events that occurred within the 140-kb a1-shrunken 2 interval resolved within this 377-bp hot spot. In yeast, meiotic double-strand breaks in chromosomal DNA are thought to initiate recombination and are generally located 5' of coding regions, near transcription promoter sequences. Because the a1 recombination hot spot is located within the 5' transcribed region of the a1 gene, the sites at which recombination events initiate and resolve appear to be different, but both appear to be regulated in relation to transcribed sequences. Although transposon insertions are known to suppress recombination and alter the ratio of crossovers to apparent gene conversions, the Mutator 1 transposon insertion in the a1-mum2 allele does not alter the sites at which recombination events resolve.
