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

Molecular beacon detection of equilibrium cyclization (MBEC) is a novel, high sensitivity technique that can allow DNA-protein complex formation to be studied under diverse conditions in a cost effective and rapid manner that can be adapted to high throughput screening. To demonstrate the ease and utility of applying MBEC to the investigation of the K(D) values of protein-DNA complexes, the sequence-specific Escherichia coli integration host factor (IHF) protein has been used as a test system. Competition between a labeled MBEC DNA construct and unlabeled duplex DNA for IHF binding allows the determination of K(D) values as a function of the DNA duplex sequence. This allows sequence specificity to be monitored while using only a single molecular beacon-labeled DNA. The robustness of MBEC for monitoring protein-DNA complex formation has been further demonstrated by determining the K(D) values as a function of salt concentration to investigate the net number of salt bridges formed in sequence-specific and -nonspecific IHF-DNA complexes. These MBEC results have been compared with those from other approaches.
