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

A total of 16 oligodeoxyribonucleotides of general sequence 5'-TCTTCTZTCTTTCT-3', where Z denotes an N-acyl-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)glycine residue, were prepared via solid phase synthesis. The ability of these oligonucleotides to form triplexes with the duplex 5'-AGAAGATAGAAAGA-HEG-TCTTTCTATCTTCT-3', where HEG is a hexaethylene glycol linker, was tested. In these triplexes, an 'interrupting' T:A base pair faces the Z residue in the third strand. Among the acyl moieties of Z tested, an anthraquinone carboxylic acid residue linked via a glycinyl group gave the most stable triplex, whose UV melting point was 8.4 degrees C higher than that of the triplex with 5'-TCTTCTGTCTTTCT-3' as the third strand. The results from exploratory nuclease selection experiments suggest that a combinatorial search for strands capable of recognizing mixed sequences by triple helix formation is feasible.
