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

DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) occur in response to both endogenous and exogenous genotoxic stress. Inappropriate repair of DSBs can lead to either loss of viability or to chromosomal alterations that increase the likelihood of cancer development. In strong support of this assertion, many cancer predisposition syndromes stem from germline mutations in genes involved in DNA DSB repair. Among the most prominent of such tumor suppressor genes are the Breast Cancer 1 and Breast Cancer 2 genes (BRCA1 and BRCA2), which are mutated in familial forms of breast and ovarian cancer. Recent findings implicate BRCA1 as a central component of several distinct macromolecular protein complexes, each dedicated to distinct elements of DNA DSB repair and tumor suppression. Emerging evidence has shed light on some of the molecular recognition processes that are responsible for targeting BRCA1 and its associated partners to DNA and chromatin directly flanking DSBs. These events are required for BRCA1-dependent DNA repair and tumor suppression. Thus, a detailed temporal and spatial knowledge of how breaks are recognized and repaired has profound implications for understanding processes related to the genesis of malignancy and to its treatment.
