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

Mutations in BRCA1 and BARD1 predispose carriers to breast and ovarian cancers. The BRCA1 and BARD1 proteins form a heterodimeric complex (BRCA1/BARD1) that regulates many biological processes, including transcription and DNA double-stranded break repair. These functions are mediated by the only known enzymatic activity of BRCA1/BARD1 in its capacity as an E3 ubiquitin ligase and its role as a central hub for many large protein complexes. But the mechanisms by which BRCA1/BARD1 interfaces with chromatin, where it exerts its major functions, have remained unknown. Here, we review recent advancements in structural and cellular biology that have provided critical insights into how BRCA1/BARD1 serves as both a nucleosome reader and writer to facilitate transcriptional regulation and DNA repair by homologous recombination.
