DNA repair pathway choice at various conditions immediately post irradiation.
Article in International journal of radiation biology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
purposeTo clarify which DNA double-strand break repair pathway, non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ), homologous recombination repair (HRR) or both, plays a key role in potentially lethal damage repair (PLDR). METHODS AND MATERIALS: Combining published data and our new potentially lethal damage repair (PLDR) data, we explain whether similar to sublethal damage repair (SLDR), PLDR also mainly depends on NHEJ versus HRR. The PLDR data used the same cell lines: wild type, HRR or NHEJ-deficient fibroblast cells, as those SLDR data published by our laboratory previously. The PLDR condition that we used was as commonly described by many other groups: the cells were collected immediately or overnight post ionizing radiation for colony formation after cultured to a plateau phase with a low concentration of serum medium.
resultsEnough data from other groups and our lab showed that wild type or HRR-deficient cells had efficient PLDR, but NHEJ deficient cells did not.
conclusionNHEJ contributes more to PLDR than HRR in mammalian cells, which is similar to SLDR. Since both SLDR and PLDR are relevant to clinical tumor status while undergoing radiotherapy, such clarification may benefit radiotherapy in the near future.
