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

Bleomycin is an antibiotic drug that is widely used in cancer chemotherapy. Telomeres are located at the ends of chromosomes and comprise the tandemly repeated DNA sequence (GGGTTA)( n ) in humans. Since bleomycin cleaves DNA at 5'-GT dinucleotide sequences, telomeres are expected to be a major target for bleomycin cleavage. In this work, we determined the DNA sequence specificity of bleomycin cleavage in telomeric sequences in human cells. This was accomplished using a linear amplification procedure, a fluorescently labelled oligonucleotide primer and capillary gel electrophoresis with laser-induced fluorescence detection. This represents the first occasion that the DNA sequence specificity of bleomycin cleavage in telomeric DNA sequences in human cells has been reported. The bleomycin DNA sequence selectivity was mainly at 5'-GT dinucleotides, with lesser amounts at 5'-GG dinucleotides. The cellular bleomycin telomeric DNA damage was also compared with bleomycin telomeric damage in purified human genomic DNA and was found to be very similar. The implications of these results for the understanding of bleomycin's mechanism of action in human cells are discussed.
