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 fidelity with which organisms replicate their chromosomal DNA is of considerable interest. Detailed studies in the bacterium Escherichia coli have indicated that the fidelity of leading- and lagging-strand DNA replication is not the same, based on experiments in which the orientation of certain mutational targets on the chromosome was inverted relative to the movement of the replication fork: different mutation rates for several base-pair substitutions were observed depending on this orientation. While these experiments are indicative of differential replication fidelity in the two strands, a conclusion whether leading or lagging strand is the more accurate depends on knowledge of the primary mispairing error responsible for the base substitutions in question. A broad analysis of in vitro base-pairing preferences of DNA polymerases led us to propose that lagging-strand is the more accurate strand. In the present work, we present more direct in vivo evidence in support of this proposal. We determine the orientation dependence of mutant frequencies in ndk and dcd strains, which carry defined dNTP pool alterations. As these pool alterations lead to predictable effects on the array of possible mispairing errors, they mark the strands in which the observed errors occur. The combined results support the proposed higher accuracy of lagging-strand replication in E. coli.
