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

BRCA1 plays a central role in DNA repair. Although N-terminal RING and C-terminal BRCT domains are studied well, the functions of the central region of BRCA1 are poorly characterized. Here, we report a structural and functional analysis of BRCA1 alleles and functional human BRCA1 in chicken B-lymphocyte cell line DT40. The combination of "homologous recombineering" and "RT-cassette" enables modifications of chicken BRCA1 gene in Escherichia coli. Mutant BRCA1 knock-in DT40 cell lines were generated using BRCA1 mutation constructs by homologous recombination with a targeting efficiency of up to 100%. Our study demonstrated that deletion of motifs 2-9 BRCA1
