XPG in the Nucleotide Excision Repair and Beyond: a study on the different functional aspects of XPG and its associated diseases.
Review in Molecular biology reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 5 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
Several proteins are involved in DNA repair mechanisms attempting to repair damages to the DNA continuously. One such protein is Xeroderma Pigmentosum Complementation Group G (XPG), a significant component in the Nucleotide Excision Repair (NER) pathway. XPG is accountable for making the 3' incision in the NER, while XPF-ERCC4 joins ERCC1 to form the XPF-ERCC1 complex. This complex makes a 5' incision to eliminate bulky DNA lesions. XPG is also known to function as a cofactor in the Base Excision Repair (BER) pathway by increasing hNth1 activity, apart from its crucial involvement in the NER. Reports suggest that XPG also plays a non-catalytic role in the Homologous Recombination Repair (HRR) pathway by forming higher-order complexes with BRCA1, BRCA2, Rad51, and PALB2, further influencing the activity of these molecules. Studies show that, apart from its vital role in repairing DNA damages, XPG is also responsible for R-loop formation, which facilitates exhibiting phenotypes of Werner Syndrome. Though XPG has a role in several DNA repair pathways and molecular mechanisms, it is primarily a NER protein. Unrepaired and prolonged DNA damage leads to genomic instability and facilitates neurological disorders, aging, pigmentation, and cancer susceptibility. This review explores the vital role of XPG in different DNA repair mechanisms which are continuously involved in repairing these damaged sites and its failure leading to XP-G, XP-G/CS complex phenotypes, and cancer progression.
