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

2'-O-methyl-RNAs incorporating 3-deazaguanine (c3G) were synthesized by use of N,N-diphenylcarbamoyl and N,N-dimethylaminomethylene as its base protecting groups to suppress sheared-type 5'-GA-3'/5'-GA-3' tandem mismatched base pairing which requires the N3 atom. These modified RNAs hybridized more weakly with the complementary and single mismatch-containing RNAs than the unmodified RNAs. The T(m) experiments were performed to clarify the effects of replacement of the fifth G with c(3)G on stabilization of 2'-O-methyl-(5'-CGGCGAGGAG-3')/5'-CUCCGAGCCG-3' and 2'-O-methyl-(5'-CGGGGACGAG-3')/5'-CUCGGACCCG-3'duplexes, which form sheared-type and face-to-face type 5'-GA-3'/5'-GA-3' tandem mismatched base pairs, respectively. Consequently, this replacement led to more pronounced destabilization of the former duplex that needs the N3 atom for the sheared-type base pair than the latter that does not need it for the face-to-face type base pair. A similar tendency was observed for 2'-O-methyl-RNA/DNA duplexes. These results suggest that the N3 atom of G plays an important role in stabilization of the canonical G/C base pair as well as the base discrimination and its loss suppressed formation of the undesired sheared-type mismatched base pair. Computational studies based on ab initio calculations suggest that the weaker hydrogen bonding ability and larger dipole moment of c3G can be the origin of the lower T(m).
