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 extensive chromosome replication (ECR) model of double-strand-break repair (DSBR) proposes that each end of a double-strand break (DSB) is repaired independently by initiating extensive semiconservative DNA replication after strand invasion into homologous template DNA. In contrast, several other DSBR models propose that the two ends of a break are repaired in a coordinated manner using a single repair template with only limited DNA synthesis. We have developed plasmid and chromosomal recombinational repair assays to assess coordination of the broken ends during DSBR in bacteriophage T4. Results from the plasmid assay demonstrate that the two ends of a DSB can be repaired independently using homologous regions on two different plasmids and that extensive replication is triggered in the process. These findings are consistent with the ECR model of DSBR. However, results from the chromosomal assay imply that the two ends of a DSB utilize the same homologous repair template even when many potential templates are present, suggesting coordination of the broken ends during chromosomal repair. This result is consistent with several coordinated models of DSBR, including a modified version of the ECR model.
