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

Replisome collision with a nicked parental DNA template can lead to the formation of a replication-associated double strand break (DSB). How this break is repaired has implications for cancer initiation, cancer therapy and therapeutic gene editing. Recent work shows that collision of a replisome with a nicked DNA template can give rise to either a single-ended (se) or a double-ended (de)DSB, with potentially divergent effects on repair pathway choice and genomic instability. Emerging evidence suggests that the biochemical environment of the broken mammalian replication fork may be specialized in such a way as to skew repair in favor of homologous recombination at the expense of non-homologous end joining.
