Participation of TDP1 in the repair of formaldehyde-induced DNA-protein cross-links in chicken DT40 cells.
Article in PloS one, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Proteins are covalently trapped on DNA to form DNA-protein cross-links (DPCs) when cells are exposed to DNA-damaging agents. Aldehyde compounds produce common types of DPCs that contain proteins in an undisrupted DNA strand. Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) repairs topoisomerase 1 (TOPO1) that is trapped at the 3'-end of DNA. In the present study, we examined the contribution of TDP1 to the repair of formaldehyde-induced DPCs using a reverse genetic strategy with chicken DT40 cells. The results obtained showed that cells deficient in TDP1 were sensitive to formaldehyde. The removal of formaldehyde-induced DPCs was slower in tdp1-deficient cells than in wild type cells. We also found that formaldehyde did not produce trapped TOPO1, indicating that trapped TOPO1 was not a primary cytotoxic DNA lesion that was generated by formaldehyde and repaired by TDP1. The formaldehyde treatment resulted in the accumulation of chromosomal breakages that were more prominent in tdp1-deficient cells than in wild type cells. Therefore, TDP1 plays a critical role in the repair of formaldehyde-induced DPCs that are distinct from trapped TOPO1.
