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

A class of hairpin polyamides linked by 3,4-diaminobutyric acid, resulting in a beta-amine residue at the turn unit, showed improved binding affinities relative to their alpha-amino-gamma-turn analogs for particular sequences. We incorporated beta-amino-gamma-turns in six-ring polyamides and determined whether there are any sequence preferences under the turn unit by quantitative footprinting titrations. Although there was an energetic penalty for G.C and C.G base pairs, we found little preference for T.A over A.T at the beta-amino-gamma-turn position. Fluorine and hydroxyl substituted alpha-amino-gamma-turns were synthesized for comparison. Their binding affinities and specificities in the context of six-ring polyamides demonstrated overall diminished affinity and no additional specificity at the turn position. We anticipate that this study will be a baseline for further investigation of the turn subunit as a recognition element for the DNA minor groove.
