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

Helicases are an important class of enzymes involved in DNA and RNA metabolism that couple the energy of ATP hydrolysis to unwind duplex DNA and RNA structures. Understanding the mechanism of helicase action is vital due to their involvement in various biological processes such as DNA replication, repair and recombination. Furthermore, the duplex DNA unwinding property of this class of enzymes is closely related to their single-stranded DNA translocation. Hence the study of its translocation properties is essential to understanding helicase activity. Here we review the methods that are employed to analyze the DNA translocation and unwinding activities of the bacteriophage T4 UvsW and Dda helicases. These methods have been successfully employed to study the functions of helicases from large superfamilies.
