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

Unrepaired DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) can lead to genomic instability, carcinogenesis, or cell death; however, mitotic cells do not exhibit a DNA damage checkpoint delay and do not repair DSBs until the next cell cycle. Instead, DSBs can delay anaphase through the mitotic spindle checkpoint by an incompletely understood mechanism. Li et al. now show that, in human mitotic cells with damaged DNA, superoxide dismutase 1 inhibits protein phosphatase 2a, which dephosphorylates kinetochore proteins to silence the spindle checkpoint, leading to persistent spindle checkpoint activation and delayed anaphase onset. Here, the biological significance of these findings and open questions are discussed.
