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

Chromosomal translocations are associated with several tumor types, including hematopoietic malignancies, sarcomas, and solid tumors of epithelial origin, due to their activation of a proto-oncogene or generation of a novel fusion protein with oncogenic potential. In many cases, the availability of suitable human models has been lacking because of the difficulty in recapitulating precise expression of the fusion protein or other reasons. Further, understanding how translocations form mechanistically has been a goal, as it may suggest ways to prevent their occurrence. Chromosomal translocations arise when DNA ends from double-strand breaks (DSBs) on two heterologous chromosomes are improperly joined. This review provides a summary of DSB repair mechanisms and their contribution to translocation formation, the various programmable nuclease platforms that have been used to generate translocations, and the successes that have been achieved in this area.
