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

We present here molecular dynamics simulations and DNA conformational dynamics for a series of trinuclear platinum [Pt(3)(HPTAB)](6+)-DNA adducts [HPTAB = N,N,N',N',N'',N''-hexakis (2-pyridyl-methyl)-1,3,5-tris(aminomethyl) benzene], including three types of bifunctional crosslinks and four types of trifunctional crosslinks. Our simulation results reveal that binding of the trinuclear platinum compound to a DNA duplex induces the duplex unwinding in the vicinity of the platination sites, and causes the DNA to bend toward the major groove. As a consequence, this produces a DNA molecule whose minor groove is more widened and shallow compared to that of an undamaged bare-DNA molecule. Notably, for trifunctional crosslinks, we have observed extensive DNA conformational distortions, which is rarely seen for normal platinum-DNA adducts. Our findings, in this study, thus provide further support for the idea that platinum compounds with trifunctional intra-strand or long-range-inter-strand cross-linking modes can generate larger DNA conformational distortions than other types of cross-linking modes.
