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

Fanconi anaemia is a chromosomal instability disorder associated with cancer predisposition and bone marrow failure. Among the 13 identified FA gene products only one, the DNA translocase FANCM, has homologues in lower organisms, suggesting a conserved function in DNA metabolism. However, a precise role for FANCM in DNA repair remains elusive. Here, we show a novel function for FANCM that is distinct from its role in the FA pathway: promoting replication fork restart and simultaneously limiting the accumulation of RPA-ssDNA. We show that in DT40 cells this process is controlled by ATR and PLK1, and that in the absence of FANCM, stalled replication forks are unable to resume DNA synthesis and genome duplication is ensured by excess origin firing. Unexpectedly, we also uncover an early role for FANCM in ATR-mediated checkpoint signalling by promoting chromatin retention of TopBP1. Failure to retain TopBP1 on chromatin impacts on the ability of ATR to phosphorylate downstream molecular targets, including Chk1 and SMC1. Our data therefore indicate a fundamental role for FANCM in the maintenance of genome integrity during S phase.
