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

Periodically regulated cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk) is required for DNA synthesis and mitosis. Hydroxyurea (HU) inhibits DNA synthesis by depleting dNTPs, the basic unit for DNA synthesis. HU treatment triggers the S-phase checkpoint, which arrests cells at S-phase, inhibits late origin firing and stabilizes replication forks. Using budding yeast as a model system, we found that Swe1, a negative regulator of Cdk, appears at S-phase and accumulates in HU treatment cells. Interestingly, this accumulation is not dependent on S-phase checkpoint. Deltahsl1, Deltahsl7, and cdc5-2 mutants, which have defects in Swe1 degradation, show HU sensitivity because of high Swe1 protein levels. We further demonstrated that their HU sensitivity is not a result of DNA damage accumulation or incomplete DNA synthesis; instead the sensitivity is due to their dramatically delayed recovery from HU-induced S-phase arrest. Strikingly, our in vivo data indicate that Swe1 inhibits the kinase activity of Clb2-Cdk1, but not that of Clb5-Cdk1. Therefore, S-phase accumulated Swe1 prevents Clb2-Cdk1-mediated mitotic activities, but has little effects on Clb5-Cdk1-associated S-phase progression.
