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

Non-additivity of base-base interactions in all ten possible model dinucleotide steps were analyzed on MP2/aug-cc-pvDZ quantum chemistry level. Conformations of four nucleobases exactly matched to ones occurring in B-DNA crystals. In most of thw 162 analyzed tetramers both three- and four-body contributions are negligible except for d(GpG) steps. However, in these dinucleotides both contributions are always of opposite signs and in all cases the sum of all non-additive part of intermolecular interactions do not exceed 2.6 kcal mol(-1). This stands for less than 5% of the overall binding energy of dinucleotide steps. Also replacements of guanine with 8-oxoguanine in d(GpG) systems introduces non-additivity of the same magnitude as for canonical dinucleotides. It is observed linear relationships between values of total binding energy obtained in the tetramer basis set and estimated energy exclusively in dimers basis sets with assumption of pairwise additivities. For all analyzed dinucleotides steps there are also linear correlations between amount of non-additive contributions and magnitude of pairs interactions. Based on differences in electrostatic contribution to the total binding energy of four nucleobases and polarity of dinucleotide steps three distinct classes of dinucleotide steps were identified.
