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

Homozygous and heterozygous transgenic mice of the Tg152 line overexpressing the human copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (hSOD-1) were rapidly differentiated by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) using interphase lymphocyte nuclei. We have devised a simple and fast method for preparing interphase nuclei with very small quantities of whole mouse blood, avoiding several steps of the classical FISH technique. Lymphocyte separation and cell culture were not required. This technique provides an excellent tool for the unambiguous detection of homozygous and heterozygous transgenic mice in a litter. It can be used to check young animals since 2 microliters of whole blood is sufficient. We also show that in this transgenic line numerous copies of the hSOD-1 transgene are integrated at a single autosomal locus, in tandem head-to-tail organization.
