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

During mitotic prophase, chromosomes progressively compact to their metaphase length. In contrast, meiotic chromosomes condense moderately until late in prophase I, then they condense more dramatically (coil) to their fully condensed state. Meiotin-1 is a meiosis-enriched, chromosomal protein. We propose that it delays coiling until after reciprocal genetic exchange. We have used immunoblotting and immunocytochemistry with normal lily cells undergoing meiosis to demonstrate that meiotin-1 is present during the early portions of prophase I, but diminishes at the time when meiotic chromosomes begin to coil. Additionally, we have examined lily meiotic nuclei undergoing the reversible phenomenon of precocious leptotene chromosome condensation (precocious coiling). The leptotene chromosomes that are precociously condensed lack meiotin-1 immunostaining. Furthermore nuclei returning to the normal state of moderate prophase I condensation acquire meiotin-1.
