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

Telomeres are hypersensitive to the formation of the common oxidative lesion 8-oxoguanine (8oxoG), which impacts telomere stability and function. OGG1 and MUTYH glycosylases initiate base excision repair (BER) to remove 8oxoG or prevent mutation. Here, we show OGG1 loss or inhibition, or MUTYH loss, partially rescues telomeric 8oxoG-induced premature senescence and associated proinflammatory responses, while loss of both glycosylases causes a near complete rescue in human fibroblasts. Glycosylase deficiency also suppresses 8oxoG-induced telomere fragility and dysfunction, indicating that downstream single-stranded break (SSB) repair intermediates impair telomere replication. Preventing BER initiation suppresses PARylation and confers resistance to the synergistic effects of PARP inhibitors on 8oxoG-induced senescence. However, OGG1 activity is essential for preserving cell growth after chronic telomeric 8oxoG formation, whereas MUTYH promotes senescence to prevent chromosomal instability from unrepaired damage. Our studies reveal that inefficient completion of 8oxoG BER at telomeres triggers cellular senescence via SSB intermediates which disrupt telomere function.
