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

By combining Ce(IV)/EDTA with two pseudo-complementary peptide nucleic acids (pcPNAs), both strands in double-stranded DNA were site-selectively hydrolyzed at the target site. Either plasmid DNA (4361 bp) or its linearized form was used as the substrate. When two pcPNAs invaded into the double-stranded DNA, only the designated portion in each of the two strands was free from Watson-Crick base pairing with the counterpart DNA or the pcPNA. Upon the treatment of this invasion complex with Ce(IV)/EDTA at 37 degrees C and pH 7.0, both of these single-stranded portions were selectively hydrolyzed at the designated site, resulting in the site-selective two-strand scission of the double-stranded DNA. Furthermore, the hydrolytic scission products were successfully connected with foreign double-stranded DNA by using ligase. The potential of these artificial systems for manipulation of huge DNA has been indicated.
