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

Bloom syndrome (BS) is a recessive human genetic disorder characterized by short stature, immunodeficiency and an elevated risk of malignancy. The gene mutated in BS, BLM, encodes a RecQ-type DNA helicase. BS cells have mutator phenotypes such as hyper-recombination, chromosome instability and an increased frequency of sister chromatid exchange (SCE). To define the primary role of BLM, we generated BLM(-/-) mutants of the chicken B-cell line DT40. In addition to characteristics of BLM(-/-) cells reported previously by the other group, they are hypersensitive to genotoxic agents such as etoposide, bleomycin and 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide and irradiation with the short wave length of UV (UVC) light, whereas they exhibit normal sensitivity to X-ray irradiation and hydroxyurea. UVC irradiation to BLM(-/-) cells during G(1) to early S phase caused chromosomal instability such as chromatid breaks and chromosomal quadriradials, leading to eventual cell death. These results suggest that BLM is involved in surveillance of base abnormalities in genomic DNA that may be encountered by replication forks in early S phase. Such surveillance would maintain genomic stability in vertebrate cells, resulting in the prevention of cellular tumorigenesis.
