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

Cell biology and genetic studies have demonstrated that DNA double strand break (DSB) repair can be performed using an RNA transcript that spans the site of the DNA break as a template for repair. This type of DSB repair requires a reverse transcriptase to convert an RNA sequence into DNA to facilitate repair of the break, rather than copying from a DNA template as in canonical DSB repair. Translesion synthesis (TLS) DNA polymerases (Pol) are often more promiscuous than DNA Pols, raising the notion that reverse transcription could be performed by a TLS Pol. Indeed, several studies have demonstrated that human Pol η has reverse transcriptase activity, while others have suggested that the yeast TLS Pol ζ is involved. Here, we purify all seven known nuclear DNA Pols of
