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

The activity of telomerase in cancer cells is tightly regulated by numerous proteins including DNA replication factors. However, it is unclear how replication proteins regulate telomerase action in higher eukaryotic cells. Previously we have demonstrated that the multifunctional DNA replication and repair protein flap endonuclease 1 (FEN1) is in complex with telomerase and may regulate telomerase activity in mammalian cells. In this study, we further analyzed the nature of this association. Our results show that FEN1 and telomerase association occurs throughout the S phase, with the maximum association in the mid S phase. We further mapped the physical domains in FEN1 required for this association and found that the C-terminus and the nuclease domain of FEN1 are involved in this interaction, whereas the PCNA binding ability of FEN1 is dispensable for the interaction. These results provide insights into the nature of possible protein-protein associations that telomerase participates in for maintaining functional telomeres.
