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

Well-nourished cells in a favorable environment (well supplied with growth factors, cytokines, and/or hormones and free from stresses, ionizing radiation, etc.) will grow, replicate their genome, and divide into two daughter cells, fully prepared to repeat the process. This cycle of DNA replication and division underlies all aspects of biological growth, reproduction, repair and development. As such, it is essential that the cell's genome be guarded against damage during the replication/division process, lest the error(s) be irrevocably passed down to all future generations of progeny. Hence, cell cycle progression is closely guarded against major sources of errors, in particular DNA damage and misalignment of replicated chromosomes on the mitotic spindle. In this review article we examine closely the molecular mechanisms that maintain genomic integrity during the cell division cycle, and we find an unexpected and intriguing arrangement of concatenated and nested bistable toggle switches. The topology of the network seems to play crucial roles in maintaining the stability of the genome during cell proliferation.
