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

The LADI-III diffractometer at the Institut Laue-Langevin has been used to carry out a preliminary neutron crystallographic study of the self-complementary DNA oligonucleotide d(AGGGGCCCCT)(2) in the A conformation. The results demonstrate the viability of a full neutron crystallographic analysis with the aim of providing enhanced information on the ion-water networks that are known to be important in stabilizing A-DNA. This is the first account of a single-crystal neutron diffraction study of A-DNA. The study was carried out with the smallest crystal used to date for a neutron crystallographic study of a biological macromolecule.
