DNA mismatch repair in trinucleotide repeat instability.
Review in Science China. Life sciences, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Trinucleotide repeat expansions cause over 30 severe neuromuscular and neurodegenerative disorders, including Huntington's disease, myotonic dystrophy type 1, and fragile X syndrome. Although previous studies have substantially advanced the understanding of the disease biology, many key features remain unknown. DNA mismatch repair (MMR) plays a critical role in genome maintenance by removing DNA mismatches generated during DNA replication. However, MMR components, particularly mismatch recognition protein MutSβ and its interacting factors MutLα and MutLγ, have been implicated in trinucleotide repeat instability. In this review, we will discuss the roles of these key MMR proteins in promoting trinucleotide repeat instability.
