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 cohesin complex is critical for genome organization and regulation, relying on specialized co-factors to mediate its diverse functional activities. Here, by analyzing patterns of similar gene requirements across cell lines, we identify PRR12 as a mediator of cohesin and genome integrity. We show that PRR12 interacts with NIPBL/MAU2 and the cohesin complex, and that the loss of PRR12 results in reduced cohesin localization and a substantial increase in DNA double-strand breaks in mouse NIH-3T3 cells. Additionally, PRR12 co-localizes with NIPBL to sites of DNA damage in a NIPBL and cohesin-dependent manner. We find that the requirement for PRR12 differs across cell lines, with human HeLa cells exhibiting reduced sensitivity to PRR12 loss compared with mouse NIH-3T3 cells, indicating context-specific roles. Together, our work identifies PRR12 as a regulator of cohesin and provides insight into how genome integrity is maintained across diverse cellular contexts.
