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

Double-strand breaks in chromosomal DNA are repaired efficiently in eukaryotic cells through pathways that involve direct religation of broken ends, or through pathways that utilize an unbroken, homologous DNA molecule as a template for replication. Pathways of repair that require homology initiate with the resection of the 5' strand at the break site, to uncover the 3' single-stranded DNA that becomes a critical intermediate in single-strand annealing and in homologous strand exchange. Resection of the 5' strand is regulated to occur most efficiently in S and G(2) phases of the cell cycle when sister chromatids are present as recombination templates. The mechanisms governing resection in eukaryotes have been elusive for many years, but recent work has identified the major players in short-range processing of DNA ends as well as the extensive resection of breaks that has been observed in vivo. This review focuses on the Mre11/Rad50/Xrs2(Nbs1) complex and the Sae2(CtIP) protein and their roles in initiating both short-range and long-range resection, the effects of topoisomerase-DNA conjugates on resection in vivo, and the relationship between these factors and NHEJ proteins in regulating 5' strand resection in eukaryotic cells.
