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

Although poly-(ADP ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) and PARylation of histones have been known for over 50 years and have been successfully targeted by anti-cancer drugs, we are just coming up to the 10-year anniversary of the paradigm-shifting discovery of histone PARylation factor 1 (HPF1), the protein that facilitates the modification of histones by PARP1. In addition to forming a shared active site with PARP1 by contributing a catalytic residue, HPF1 dramatically changes the activity of PARP1 both in vitro and in vivo with respect to substrate choice, PAR chain length, sites of modification, and consequent effects on chromatin. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge status in the PARP1-HPF1 field, with an emphasis on the many open questions that the PARP research community still needs to resolve. A better understanding of this intriguing enzyme system will enable ongoing efforts to develop a more complete understanding of the response to DNA damage and better inhibitors of PARP1.
