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

Chromosomal double-strand breaks (DSBs) can be repaired by either homology-dependent or homology-independent pathways. Nonhomologous repair mechanisms have been relatively less well studied, despite their potential importance in generating chromosomal rearrangements. We have developed a Saccharomyces cerevisiae-based assay to identify and characterize homology-independent chromosomal rearrangements associated with repair of a unique DSB generated within an engineered URA3 gene. Approximately 1% of successfully repaired cells have accompanying chromosomal rearrangements consisting of large insertions, deletions, aberrant gene conversions, or other more complex changes. We have analyzed rearrangements in isogenic wild-type, rad52, yku80, and rad52 yku80 strains, to determine the types of events that occur in the presence or absence of these key repair proteins. Deletions were found in all strain backgrounds, but insertions were dependent upon the presence of Yku80p. A rare RAD52- and YKU80-independent form of deletion was present in all strains. These events were characterized by long one-sided deletions (up to 13 kb) and extensive imperfect overlapping sequences (7-22 bp) at the junctions. Our results demonstrate that the frequency and types of repair events depend on the specific genetic context. This approach can be applied to a number of problems associated with chromosome stability.
