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

Nucleosome assembly proteins play important roles in chromatin remodeling, which determines gene expression, cell proliferation and terminal differentiation. Testis specific protein, Y-encoded-like 2 (TSPYL2) is a nucleosome assembly protein expressed in neuronal precursors and mature neurons. Previous studies have shown that TSPYL2 binds cyclin B and inhibits cell proliferation in cultured cells suggesting a role in cell cycle regulation. To investigate the physiological significance of TSPYL2 in the control of cell cycle, we generated mice with targeted disruption of Tspyl2. These mutant mice appear grossly normal, have normal life span and do not exhibit increased tumor incidence. To define the role of TSPYL2 in DNA repair, checkpoint arrest and apoptosis, primary embryonic fibroblasts and thymocytes from Tspyl2 deficient mice were isolated and examined under unperturbed and stressed conditions. We show that mutant fibroblasts are impaired in G1 arrest under the situation of DNA damage induced by gamma irradiation. This is mainly attributed to the defective activation of p21 transcription despite proper p53 protein accumulation, suggesting that TSPYL2 is additionally required for p21 induction. TSPYL2 serves a biological role in maintaining the G1 checkpoint under stress condition.
