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

Ribonucleotides are the most common noncanonical nucleotides incorporated into the genome of replicating cells. They are efficiently removed by ribonucleotide excision repair initiated by RNase H2 cleavage. In the absence of RNase H2, such embedded ribonucleotides can be used to track DNA polymerase activity in vivo. To determine their precise location in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we developed embedded ribonucleotide sequencing (emRiboSeq), which uses recombinant RNase H2 to selectively create ligatable 3'-hydroxyl groups, in contrast to alternative methods that use alkaline hydrolysis. EmRiboSeq allows reproducible, strand-specific and potentially quantitative detection of embedded ribonucleotides at single-nucleotide resolution. For the genome-wide mapping of other noncanonical bases, RNase H2 can be replaced with specific nicking endonucleases in this protocol; we term this method endonuclease sequencing (EndoSeq). With the protocol taking <5 d to complete, these methods allow the in vivo study of DNA replication and repair, including the identification of replication origins and termination regions.
