DNA topology: A central dynamic coordinator in chromatin regulation.
Review in Current opinion in structural biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Double helical DNA winds around nucleosomes, forming a beads-on-a-string array that further contributes to the formation of high-order chromatin structures. The regulatory components of the chromatin, interacting intricately with DNA, often exploit the topological tension inherent in the DNA molecule. Recent findings shed light on, and simultaneously complicate, the multifaceted roles of DNA topology (also known as DNA supercoiling) in various aspects of chromatin regulation. Different studies may emphasize the dynamics of DNA topological tension across different scales, interacting with diverse chromatin factors such as nucleosomes, nucleic acid motors that propel DNA-tracking processes, and DNA topoisomerases. In this review, we consolidate recent studies and establish connections between distinct scientific discoveries, advancing our current understanding of chromatin regulation mediated by the supercoiling tension of the double helix. Additionally, we explore the implications of DNA topology and DNA topoisomerases in human diseases, along with their potential applications in therapeutic interventions.
