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

Double-strand DNA breaks (DSBs) induced by ionizing radiation can be visualized in human cells using antibodies against Ser-139 phosphorylated histone H2AX (gamma-H2AX). Large gamma-H2AX foci are seen in the nucleus fixed 1 hour after irradiation and their number corresponds to the number of DSBs, allowing analysis of these genome lesions after low doses. We estimated whether transcription is affected in chromatin domains containing gamma-H2AX by following in vivo incorporation of 5-bromouridine triphosphate (BrUTP) loaded by cell scratching (run-on assay). We found that BrUTP incorporation is strongly suppressed at gamma-H2AX foci, suggesting that H2AX phosphorylation inhibits transcription. This is not caused by preferential association of gamma-H2AX foci with constitutive or facultative heterochromatin, which was visualized in irradiated cells using antibodies against histone H3 trimethylated at lysine-9 (H3-K9m3) or histone H3 trimethylated at lysine-27 (H3-K27m3). Apparently, formation of gamma-H2AX induces changes of chromatin that inhibit assembly of transcription complexes without heterochromatin formation. Inhibition of transcription by phosphorylation of histone H2AX can decrease chromatin movement at DSBs and frequency of misjoining of DNA ends.
