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 circadian clock component PER2 coordinates daily oscillations in gene expression across multiple tissues, yet its role in assembling multi-protein regulatory complexes remains incompletely understood. Here, we report that PER2 nucleates a ternary complex with the tumor suppressor BRCA1 and the transcription factor POU2F1(OCT-1) to impose circadian control on target gene promoters. Using bacterial two-hybrid screening, we identified BRCA1 as a novel PER2-interacting protein. Biochemical mapping revealed that PER2 engages BRCA1 through multiple discrete binding interfaces: PER2 spanning residues 356-574 and 683-872 interact with both the N-terminal (1-400) and C-terminal BRCT (1670-1863) domains of BRCA1. Structural modeling predicted 361 residue contacts between PER2 and BRCA1, substantially more than the 74 contacts predicted for PER2:POU2F1(OCT-1), indicating differential affinities that enable ordered complex assembly. Sequential pull-down assays demonstrated that PER2, BRCA1, and POU domain form a stable ternary complex
