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

DNA repair by homologous recombination (HR) is essential for genomic integrity, tumor suppression, and the formation of gametes. HR uses DNA synthesis to repair lesions such as DNA double-strand breaks and stalled DNA replication forks, but despite having a good understanding of the steps leading to homology search and strand invasion, we know much less of the mechanisms that establish recombination-associated DNA polymerization. Here, we report that C17orf53/HROB is an OB-fold-containing factor involved in HR that acts by recruiting the MCM8-MCM9 helicase to sites of DNA damage to promote DNA synthesis. Mice with targeted mutations in
