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

Yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs) spanning the centromeric region of the human Y chromosome were introduced into mouse LA-9 cells by spheroplast fusion in order to determine whether they would form mammalian artificial chromosomes. In about 50% of the cell lines generated, the YAC DNA was associated with circular extrachromosomal structures. These episomes were only present in a proportion of the cells, usually at high copy number, and were lost rapidly in the absence of selection. These observations suggest that, despite the presence of centromeric sequences, the structures were not segregating efficiently and thus were not forming artificial chromosomes. However, extrachromosomal structures containing alphoid DNA appeared cytogenetically smaller than those lacking it, as long as yeast DNA was also absent. This suggests that alphoid DNA can generate the condensed chromatin structure at the centromere.
