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

Claspin is a mediator of the ATR-dependent DNA replication checkpoint in human cells and also promotes DNA replication fork progression and stability. Though Claspin has been shown to bind DNA and co-immunoprecipitate with other replication fork-associated proteins, the specific protein-protein and protein-DNA interactions that are important for Claspin function are not known. We therefore purified several domains of human Claspin and then tested for direct interactions of these fragments with several replication fork-associated proteins and with DNA. Our data show that the N terminus of Claspin binds to the replicative helicase co-factor Cdc45, the Timeless protein and a branched, replication fork-like DNA structure. In contrast, the C terminus of Claspin associates with DNA polymerase epsilon and Rad17-Replication Factor C (RFC). We conclude that multiple protein-DNA and protein-protein interactions may be important for Claspin function during DNA replication and DNA replication checkpoint signaling.
