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 initiation of DNA replication in eukaryotic cells begins with the assembly of pre-replicative complexes (pre-RCs) at many sites along each chromosome during the G1 phase of the cell cycle. Pre-RCs license each chromosome for duplication during S phase and mark the origins of DNA replication. In this Review, we discuss and contextualize recent findings identifying the mechanisms of origin recognition and pre-RC assembly mediated by the origin recognition complex (ORC), Cdc6 and the Mcm2-Mcm7 (Mcm2-7) hexamer bound to Cdt1. We also present comprehensive videos that demonstrate the multiple mechanisms for pre-RC assembly and compare the structures of the complexes involved in human and Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells.
