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 designed a new class of modified antisense oligodeoxyribonucleotides (ODN) consisting of a central contiguous stretch of 6-8 unmodified nucleotides flanked by 3'- and 5'-regions containing several nucleotides joined by cationic internucleoside linkages. The positive charge results from modification of the internucleoside linkages as N, N -diethylethylene-diamine phosphoramidates. These zwitterionic compounds show improved antisense activity in both Xenopus oocytes and embryos compared to our previously described chimeric oligonucleotides possessing neutral terminal internucleoside linkages. Using the localized maternal mRNA An2 as a target, we have shown that chimeric oligonucleotides with terminal positive charges are very effective in the sequence-specific elimination of maternal messages present in both oocytes and embryos. In addition, using the embryonic mRNA GS17 as a target, we have shown that these oligonucleotides can direct RNase H-mediated cleavage of messages produced at the onset of zygotic transcription, after the mid-blastula stage. These new compounds should be useful in attenuating embryonic gene expression to study the role of specific proteins in early vertebrate development.
