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

Telomeres, the specialized nucleoproteic complexes localized at the physical ends of linear eukaryotic chromosomes, play a fundamental role in maintaining chromosomal stability and integrity, being one of the leading guardians of genome stability. In recent years, the identification and analysis of chromosomal aberrations involving telomeres has proven to be a unique tool to evaluate misrepaired and unrepaired chromosome damage in mammalian cells. Telomere instability constitutes an important source of genomic instability, a phenomenon characteristic of cancer cells, and also common in cells exposed to chemical or physical mutagens which induce chromosomal aberrations by producing chromosome breakage (clastogens). In the present review, we will focus on the chromosomal aberrations involving telomeres and their importance to determine the clastogen-induced genomic instability present in mammalian cells.
