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

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) experiments have been performed to elucidate the structural features of oligonucleotide duplexes containing the pyrimidine(6-4)pyrimidone photoproduct, which is one of the major DNA lesions formed at dipyrimidine sites by UV light. Synthetic 32mer duplexes with and without the (6-4) photoproduct were prepared and fluorescein and tetramethylrhodamine were attached, as a donor and an acceptor, respectively, to the aminohexyl linker at the C5 position of thymine in each strand. Steady-state and time-resolved analyses revealed that both the FRET efficiency and the fluorescence lifetime of the duplex containing the (6-4) photoproduct were almost identical to those of the undamaged duplex, while marked differences were observed for a cisplatin-modified duplex, as a model of kinked DNA. Lifetime measurements of a series of duplexes containing the (6-4) photoproduct, in which the fluorescein position was changed systematically, revealed a small unwinding at the damage site, but did not suggest a kinked structure. These results indicate that formation of the (6-4) photoproduct induces only a small change in the DNA structure, in contrast to the large kink at the (6-4) photoproduct site reported in an NMR study.
