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 packaging of DNA in nucleosomes presents a barrier for biological transactions including replication, transcription and repair. However, despite years of research, how the DNA is freed from the histone proteins and thereby allows the molecular machines to access the DNA remains poorly understood. We are interested in global genomic nucleotide excision repair (GG-NER). It is established that the histones are obstacles to this process, and DNA lesions are repaired less efficiently in nucleosomes than in free DNA. In the present study, we utilized molecular dynamics simulations to elucidate the nature of the distortions and dynamics imposed in the nucleosome by a set of three structually different lesions that vary in GG-NER efficiencies in free DNA, and in nucleosomes [Shafirovich, Geacintov, et. al, 2019]. Two of these are bulky lesions derived from metabolic activation of the environmental carcinogen benzo[a]pyrene, the 10R (+)-cis-anti-B[a]P-N
