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

Thermal fluctuations agitate molecules in solution over a broad range of times and distances. By passively watching the shape fluctuations of a thermally driven biomolecule, one can infer properties of the underlying interactions that determine the motion. We applied this concept to single molecules of fluorescently labeled lambda-DNA, a key model system for polymer physics. In contrast to most other single-molecule DNA experiments, we examined the unstretched, equilibrium state of DNA by using an anti-Brownian electrokinetic trap to confine the center of mass of the DNA without perturbing its internal dynamics. We analyze the long-wavelength conformational normal modes, calculate their spring constants, and measure linear and nonlinear couplings between modes. The modes show strong signs of nonlinear hydrodynamics, a feature of the underlying equations of polymer dynamics that has not previously been reported and is neglected in the widely used Rouse and Zimm approximations.
