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

The RAD51 DNA strand exchange protein plays an important role in maintaining the integrity of the human genome. It promotes homology-directed DNA repair by exchanging strands between the damaged and the intact DNA molecules. It also plays an important role in stabilizing distressed DNA replication forks. When overexpressed or misregulated, however, RAD51 contributes to "rogue," genome destabilizing events that can lead to cancer, cell death, and to acquisition of chemotherapy resistance by cancerous cells. Human RAD51 is, therefore, an important and highly coveted anticancer drug target. Biochemical, biophysical, and structural studies of the human RAD51 and establishment of its structure-activity relationship require purification of large quantities of protein. In this chapter we describe a robust method for expression and purification of human RAD51 and the methods for assessing its activity based on the single-strand DNA-binding stoichiometry and its capacity to carry out the DNA strand exchange reaction.
