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

In response to DNA double-strand breaks (DSB), histone H2AX is phosphorylated around the lesion by a feed forward signal amplification loop, originating γH2AX foci detectable by immunofluorescence and confocal microscopy as elliptical areas of uniform intensity. We exploited the significant increase in resolution (~ × 10) provided by single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) to investigate at nanometer scale the distribution of γH2AX signals either endogenous (controls) or induced by the radiomimetic bleomycin (BLEO) in HeLa cells. In both conditions, clustered substructures (nanofoci) confined to γH2AX foci and scattered nanofoci throughout the remnant nuclear area were detected. SR-Tesseler software (Voronoï tessellation-based segmentation) was combined with a custom Python script to first separate clustered nanofoci inside γH2AX foci from scattered nanofoci, and then to perform a cluster analysis upon each nanofoci type. Compared to controls, γH2AX foci in BLEO-treated nuclei presented on average larger areas (0.41 versus 0.19 µm
