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

DNA and histone synthesis are both triggered at the beginning of S phase by cyclin/cdk2 activity. Previous studies showed that inhibition of DNA synthesis with hydroxyurea or cytosine arabinoside (AraC) triggers a concerted repression of histone synthesis, indicating that sustained histone synthesis depends on continued DNA synthesis. Here we show that ectopic expression of HIRA, the likely human ortholog of two cell cycle-regulated repressors of histone gene transcription in yeast (Hir1p and Hir2p), represses transcription of histones and that this, in turn, triggers a concerted block of DNA synthesis. Thus, in mammalian cells sustained DNA synthesis and histone synthesis are mutually dependent on each other during S phase. Although cyclin/cdk2 activity drives activation of both DNA and histone synthesis at the G1/S transition of cycling cells, concerted repression of DNA or histone synthesis in response to inhibition of either one of these is not accompanied by prolonged inhibition of cyclin A/cdk2 or E/cdk2 activity. Therefore, during S phase coupling of DNA and histone synthesis occurs, at least in part, through a mechanism that is independent of cyclin/cdk2 activity. Coupling of DNA and histone synthesis in S phase presumably contributes to the prompt and orderly assembly of newly replicated DNA into chromatin.
