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

We previously reported that certain sub-regions of the thyA gene of Escherichia coli are more mutable than others when many different mutagens and mutators are analyzed (Mashiach et al., Mutation Research Fundamental Molecular Mechansims of Mutagenesis, 821: 111702, 2021). In this study, we focus on a single mutagen, cisplatin and verify that mutations occur preferentially at specific 3 bp sequences, but only when they appear in certain subregions of the gene. Moreover, we show that hotspots for some premutational lesions are camouflaged by the preferential repair effected by the uvrA,B,C-encoded excision repair system, even when they appear on the same strand. We do this by using a novel reporter gene in E. coli, the tdk gene that codes for thymidine deoxykinase, and we describe some of the advantages of utilizing this detection system.
