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 papillomavirus E1 and E2 proteins are essential for viral genome replication. E1 is a helicase that unwinds the viral origin and recruits host cellular factors to replicate the viral genome. E2 is a transcriptional regulator that helps recruit the E1 helicase to the origin and also plays a role in genome partitioning. We find that when coexpressed, the E1 and E2 proteins from several papillomavirus types localize to defined nuclear foci and result in growth suppression of the host cells. Growth suppression was due primarily to E1 protein function, and nuclear expression of E1 was accompanied by activation of a DNA damage response, resulting in phosphorylation of ATM, Chk2, and H2AX. Growth suppression and ATM activation required the ATPase and origin-specific binding functions of the E1 protein and resulted in active DNA repair, as evidenced by incorporation of nucleotide analogs and detection of free DNA ends. In the presence of the E2 protein, these activities became localized to nuclear foci. We postulate that these foci represent viral replication factories and that a cellular DNA damage response is activated to facilitate replication of viral DNA.
