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 ratio of two differentially replicating alleles is not constant during S phase. Using this fact, we have developed a method for determining allele-specific replication timing for alleles differing by at least a single base pair. Unsynchronized cells in tissue culture are first sorted into fractions based on DNA content as a measure of position in S phase. DNA is purified from each fraction and used for PCR with primers that bracket the allelic difference, amplifying both alleles. The ratio of alleles in the amplified product is then determined by a single nucleotide primer extension (SNuPE) assay, modified as described [Singer-Sam,J. and Riggs,A.D. (1993) Methods Enzymol., 225, 344-351]. We report here use of this SNuPE-based method to analyze replication timing of two X-linked genes, Pgk-1 and Xist, as well as the autosomal gene Gabra-6. We have found that the two alleles of the Gabra-6 gene replicate synchronously, as expected; similarly, the active allele of the Pgk-1 gene on the active X chromosome (Xa) replicates early relative to the silent allele on the inactive X chromosome (Xi). In contrast, the expressed allele of the Xist gene, which is on the Xi, replicates late relative to the silent allele on the Xa.
