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

A series of indole analogs that are synthesized using the scaffold of a potent radiosensitizer, YTR107, were tested for their ability to alter the solubility of phosphorylated nucleophosmin 1 (pNPM1). NPM1 is critical for DNA double strand break (DSB) repair. In response to formation of DNA DSBs, phosphorylated T199 NPM1 binds to ubiquitinated chromatin, in a RNF8/RNF168-dependent manner, forming irradiation-induced foci (IRIF) that promote repair of DNA DSBs. A Western blot assay was developed using lead molecule, YTR107, for the purpose of screening newly synthesized molecules that target pNPM1 in irradiated cells. A colony formation assay was used to demonstrate the radiosensitization properties of the compounds. Compounds that enhanced the extractability of pNPM1 upon radiation treatment possessed radiosensitization properties.
