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

Despite recent advances in our understanding of the function of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), their roles and functions in DNA repair pathways remain poorly understood. By screening a panel of uncharacterized lncRNAs to identify those whose transcription is induced by double-strand breaks (DSBs), we identified a novel lncRNA referred to as LRIK that interacts with Ku, which enhances the ability of the Ku heterodimer to detect the presence of DSBs. Here, we show that depletion of LRIK generates significantly enhanced sensitivity to DSB-inducing agents and reduced DSB repair efficiency. In response to DSBs, LRIK enhances the recruitment of repair factors at DSB sites and facilitates γH2AX signaling. Our results demonstrate that LRIK is necessary for efficient repairing DSBs via nonhomologous end-joining pathway.
