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

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) is a nuclear enzyme that is activated by binding to DNA breaks induced by ionizing radiation or through repair of altered bases in DNA by base excision repair. Mice lacking PARP-1 and, in certain cases, the cells derived from these mice exhibit hypersensitivity to ionizing radiation and alkylating agents. In this study we investigated base excision repair in cells lacking PARP-1 in order to elucidate whether their augmented sensitivity to DNA damaging agents is due to an impairment of the base excision repair pathway. Extracts prepared from wild-type cells or cells lacking PARP-1 were similar in their ability to repair plasmid DNA damaged by either X-rays (single-strand DNA breaks) or by N:-methyl-N:'-nitro-N:-nitrosoguanidine (methylated bases). In addition, we demonstrated in vivo that PARP-1-deficient cells treated with N:-methyl-N:'-nitro-N:-nitrosoguanidine repaired their genomic DNA as efficiently as wild-type cells. Therefore, we conclude that cells lacking PARP-1 have a normal capacity to repair single-strand DNA breaks inflicted by X-irradiation or breaks formed during the repair of modified bases. We propose that the hypersensitivity of PARP-1 null mutant cells to gamma-irradiation and alkylating agents is not directly due to a defect in DNA repair itself, but rather results from greatly reduced poly(ADP-ribose) formation during base excision repair in these cells.
