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

Chimeric oligonucleotides (chimeras), consisting of RNA and DNA bases folded by complementarity into a double hairpin conformation, have been shown to alter or repair single bases in plant and animal genomes. An uninterrupted stretch of DNA bases within the chimera is known to be active in the sequence alteration while RNA residues aid in complex stability. In this study, the two strands were separated in the hope of defining the role each plays in conversion. Using a series of single-stranded oligonucleotides, comprised of all RNA or DNA residues and various mixtures, several new structures have emerged as viable molecules in nucleotide conversion. When extracts from mammalian and plant cells and a genetic readout assay in bacteria are used, single-stranded oligonucleotides, containing a defined number of thioate backbone modifications, were found to be more active than the original chimera structure in the process of gene repair. Single-stranded oligonucleotides containing fully modified backbones were found to have low repair activity and in fact induce mutation. Molecules containing various lengths of modified RNA bases (2'-O-methyl) were also found to possess low activity. Taken together, these results confirm the directionality of nucleotide conversion by the DNA strand of the chimera and further present a novel, modified single-stranded DNA molecule that directs conversion in plant and animal cell-free extracts.
