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 human DINB1 gene shares a high degree of homology with the Escherichia coli dinB gene. Here, we purify the hDINB1-encoded protein and show that it is a DNA polymerase. Because hDinB1 is the eighth eukaryotic DNA polymerase to be described, we have named it DNA polymerase (Pol) theta. hPoltheta is unable to bypass a cis-syn thymine-thymine dimer, nor does it bypass a (6-4) photoproduct or an abasic site. We also examine the fidelity of hPoltheta on nondamaged DNA templates by steady-state kinetic analyses and find that hPoltheta misincorporates deoxynucleotides with a frequency of about 10(-3) to 10(-4). We discuss the relationship between the fidelity of hPoltheta and its inability to bypass DNA damage.
