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

An important consideration in the design of oligonucleotide probes for homogeneous hybridization assays is the efficiency of energy transfer between the fluorophore and quencher used to label the probes. We have determined the efficiency of energy transfer for a large number of combinations of commonly used fluorophores and quenchers. We have also measured the quenching effect of nucleotides on the fluorescence of each fluorophore. Quenching efficiencies were measured for both the resonance energy transfer and the static modes of quenching. We found that, in addition to their photochemical characteristics, the tendency of the fluorophore and the quencher to bind to each other has a strong influence on quenching efficiency. The availability of these measurements should facilitate the design of oligonucleotide probes that contain interactive fluorophores and quenchers, including competitive hybridization probes, adjacent probes, TaqMan probes and molecular beacons.
