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 break (DSB) repair mediated by the Rad51 pathway of homologous recombination is conserved in eukaryotes. In yeast, Rad51 paralogs, Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rad55-Rad57 and Schizosaccharomyces pombe Rhp55-Rhp57, are mediators of Rad51 nucleoprotein formation. The recently discovered S. pombe Sfr1/Dds20 protein has been shown to interact with Rad51 and to operate in the Rad51-dependent DSB repair pathway in parallel to the paralog-mediated pathway. Here we show that Sfr1 is a nuclear protein and acts downstream of Rad50 in DSB processing. sfr1Delta is epistatic to rad18 (-) and rad60 (-), and Sfr1 is a high-copy suppressor of the replication and repair defects of a rad60 mutant. Sfr1 functions in a Cds1-independent UV damage tolerance mechanism. In contrast to mitotic recombination, meiotic recombination is significantly reduced in sfr1Delta strains. Our data indicate that Sfr1 acts in DSB repair mainly outside of S-phase, and is required for wild-type levels of meiotic recombination. We suggest that Sfr1 acts early in recombination and has a specific role in Rad51 filament assembly, distinct from that of the Rad51 paralogs.
