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

Efficient DNA repair is essential to maintain genomic integrity. An average of 30,000 base lesions per cell are removed daily by the DNA glycosylases of the base excision repair machinery. With the advent of whole genome sequencing, many germline mutations in these DNA glycosylases have been identified and associated with various diseases, including cancer. In this graphical review, we discuss the function of the NTHL1 DNA glycosylase and how genomic mutations and altered function of this protein contributes to cancer and aging. We highlight its role in a rare tumor syndrome, NTHL1-associated polyposis (NAP), and summarize various other polymorphisms in NTHL1 that can induce early hallmarks of cancer, including genomic instability and cellular transformation.
