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

We have isolated the Drosophila disc proliferation abnormal (dpa) gene, a member of the MCM family of DNA replication factors. Members of this family of proteins are required for DNA replication in yeast. A dpa null mutant dies during pupal stages because imaginal tissues necessary for the formation of the adult fly fail to proliferate normally. Beginning in late embryogenesis BrdU labeling reveals DNA replication defects in mitotically proliferating cells. In contrast, dpa is dispensable for endoreplication, a specialized cell cycle consisting of consecutive rounds of S phases without intervening mitosis. Our studies suggest an essential role for dpa in mitotic DNA replication but not in endoreplication. Thus, dpa is not a general replication factor but may play a specialized regulatory role in DNA replication.
