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

Inverted DNA repeats are an at-risk motif for genetic instability that can induce both deletions and recombination in yeast. We investigated the role of the length of inverted repeats and size of the DNA separating the repeats for deletion and recombination. Stimulation of both deletion and recombination was directly related to the size of inverted repeats and inversely related to the size of intervening spacers. A perfect palindrome, formed by two 1.0-kb URA3-inverted repeats, increased intra- and interchromosomal recombination in the adjacent region 2,400-fold and 17,000-fold, respectively. The presence of a strong origin of replication in the spacer reduced both rates of deletion and recombination. These results support a model in which the stimulation of deletion and recombination by inverted repeats is initiated by a secondary structure formed between single-stranded DNA of inverted repeats during replication.
