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

Genomic organization and chromosomal localization of a previously uncharacterized D (Donor) locus in Xiphophorus and Poecilia species was investigated using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and Southern blot analysis. Part of this region is thought to be involved in the recombination event leading to formation of the Xmrk oncogene and it has recently been shown that this locus includes two different genes, one with high homology to a zinc finger protein of the Krüppel type, and the other an unknown gene with high similarity to a Caenorhabditis elegans gene. FISH to Xiphophorus chromosomes revealed that these two unrelated genes are closely linked and clustered at a unique chromosomal site. Southern blot hybridization patterns suggest that these genes exist in the genome as multiple copies. Furthermore, similar genomic organization profiles seem to prevail among other related fish. In particular, our FISH experiments reveal the existence of a conserved homologous chromosomal segment harboring the zinc finger protein sequence in several poeciliid fish.
