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

Hypermutation at the Ig loci is confined to the area between the promoter and the intronic enhancer, which includes the rearranged variable region gene segment. We identified factors that contribute to the site-specificity at the heavy chain locus. We found that distance from both the promoter and the intronic enhancer is crucial in hypermutation. The presence of the enhancer is required, and, in contrast to its definition for transcriptional activity, its effect is orientation-sensitive.
