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

Extensive chromatin reprogramming after fertilization is essential for successful zygotic genome activation (ZGA) and embryonic development. Traditional chromatin profiling techniques chromatin immunoprecipitation assay with sequencing (ChIP-seq) and deoxyribonuclease I hypersensitivity sequencing (DNase-seq) require large number of cells, which are not suitable for rare biological materials such as mammalian preimplantation embryos. Recent advancement of low-input epigenome profiling techniques has allowed the exploration of chromatin dynamics and functions during ZGA and early embryonic development. In this chapter, we describe two low-input methods, namely, CUT&RUN and ATAC-seq, that are efficient and robust for chromatin analyses using as few as 50-100 cells. These methods are useful for profiling histone modifications, histone variants, and chromatin accessibility in mammalian preimplantation studies.
