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 isolated 2'-Fluoro-substituted RNA aptamers that bind to streptavidin (SA) with an affinity around 7 +/- 1.8 nM, comparable with that of recently described peptide aptamers. Binding to SA was not prevented by prior saturation with biotin, enabling nucleic acid aptamers to form useful ternary complexes. Mutagenesis, secondary structure analysis, ribonuclease footprinting and deletion analysis provided evidence for the essential structural features of SA-binding aptamers. In order to provide a general method for the exploitation of these aptamers, we produced derivatives in which they were fused to the naturally structured RNA elements, CopT or CopA. In parallel, we produced derivatives of CD4-binding aptamers fused to the complementary CopA or CopT elements. When mixed, these two chimeric aptamers rapidly hybridized, by virtue of CopA-CopT complementarity, to form stable, bi-functional aptamers that we called 'adaptamers'. We show that a CD4-SA-binding adaptamer can be used to capture CD4 onto a SA-derivatized surface, illustrating their general utility as indirect affinity ligands.
