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 Su(var)3-9, enhancer of zeste, and trithorax (SET) and really interesting new gene (RING) finger-associated (SRA) protein domain is conserved across bacteria and eukaryota and coordinates extrahelical or "flipped" DNA bases. A functional SRA domain is required for ubiquitin-like with PHD and RING finger domains 1 (UHRF1) E3 ubiquitin ligase activity toward histone H3, a mechanism for recruiting the DNA methylation maintenance enzyme DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1). The SRA domain supports UHRF1 oncogenic activity in colon cancer cells, highlighting that UHRF1 SRA antagonism could be a cancer therapeutic strategy. Here we used molecular dynamics simulations, DNA binding assays,
