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

In yeasts, the replication protein Cdc6/Cdc18 is required for the initiation of DNA replication and also for coupling S phase with the following mitosis. In metazoans a role for Cdc6 has only been shown in S phase entry. Here we provide evidence that human Cdc6 (HuCdc6) also regulates the onset of mitosis, as overexpression of HuCdc6 in G(2) phase cells prevents entry into mitosis. This block is abolished when HuCdc6 is expressed together with a constitutively active Cyclin B/CDK1 complex or with Cdc25B or Cdc25C. An inhibitor of Chk1 kinase activity, UCN-01, overcomes the HuCdc6 mediated G(2) arrest indicating that HuCdc6 blocks cells in G(2) phase via a checkpoint pathway involving Chk1. When HuCdc6 is overexpressed in G(2), we detected phosphorylation of Chk1. Thus, HuCdc6 can trigger a checkpoint response, which could ensure that all DNA is replicated before mitotic entry. We also present evidence that the ability of HuCdc6 to block mitosis may be regulated by its phosphorylation.
