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

Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) is a DNA sliding clamp which confers processivity on replicative DNA polymerases. PCNA also acts as a sliding platform that enables the association of many DNA-processing proteins with DNA in a non-sequence-specific manner. In this investigation, the PCNA from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Thermococcus thioreducens (TtPCNA) was cloned, overexpressed in Escherichia coli and purified to greater than 90% homogeneity. TtPCNA crystals were obtained by sitting-drop vapor-diffusion methods and the best ordered crystal diffracted to 1.86 A resolution using synchrotron radiation. The crystals belonged to the hexagonal space group P6(3), with unit-cell parameters a = b = 89.0, c = 62.8 A. Crystals of TtPCNA proved to be amenable to complete X-ray analysis and future structure determination.
