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 mouse XPG gene is a homolog of the human DNA excision repair gene known to be defective in the hereditary sun-sensitive disorder xeroderma pigmentosum (group-G). Defects in mouse XPG have been shown to directly affect the sensitivity of cultured cells to chemotherapy agents and may play a role in tumor cell drug resistance in vivo. A full-length cosmid clone of mouse XPG was isolated by complementation of the UV sensitivity and repair defect in CHO-UV135 cells. Exon mapping determined that the gene consisted of 15 exons within 32 kb of genomic DNA. Sequencing of intron-exon boundaries revealed that mouse XPG possesses a rare class of intron previously identified in only four other eukaryotic genes; it utilizes AT and AC dinucleotides instead of the expected GT and AG within the splice junctions. Promoter analysis determined that mouse XPG is expressed constitutively and probably initiates transcription from multiple start sites, yet, unlike the yeast homolog RAD2, we found no evidence that it is UVC inducible in cultured cells. Amino acid comparison with human XPG identified a highly conserved acidic region of homology not previously described.
