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

The human NEIL1 DNA glycosylase is one of 11 mammalian glycosylases that initiate base excision repair. While substrate preference, catalytic mechanism, and structural information of NEIL1's ordered residues are available, limited information on its subcellular localization, compounded by relatively low endogenous expression levels, have impeded our understanding of NEIL1. Here, we employed a previously developed computational framework to optimize the mitochondrial localization signal of NEIL1, enabling the visualization of its specific targeting to the mitochondrion via confocal microscopy. While we observed clear mitochondrial localization and increased glycosylase/lyase activity in mitochondrial extracts from low-moderate NEIL1 expression, high NEIL1 mitochondrial expression levels proved harmful, potentially leading to cell death.
