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 ability of DNA repair in a cell is vital to its genomic integrity and thus to the normal functioning of an organism. Phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) is a well-established tumor suppressor gene that induces apoptosis and controls cell growth by inhibiting the PI3K/AKT pathway. In various human cancers, PTEN is frequently found to be mutated, deleted, or epigenetically silenced. Recent new findings have demonstrated that PTEN also plays a critical role in DNA damage repair and DNA damage response. This review summarizes the recent progress in the function of PTEN in DNA damage repair, especially in double strand break repair and nucleotide excision repair. In addition, we will discuss the role of PTEN in DNA damage response through its interaction with the Chk1 and p53 pathways. We will focus on the newly discovered mechanisms and the potential implications in cancer prevention and therapeutic intervention.
