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

Kinetic mechanism of the ssDNA recognition by the polymerase X of African Swine Fever Virus (ASFV) and energetics of intermediate formations have been examined, using the fluorescence stopped-flow method. The association is a minimum three-step process PolX + ssDNA k(1) <-- --> k(-1) (P-ssDNA)(1) k(2) <-- --> k(-2) (P-ssDNA)(2) k(3) <-- --> k(-3) (P-ssDNA)(3). The nucleic acid makes the initial contact through the C-terminal domain, which generates most of the overall ΔG°. In the second step the nucleic acid engages the N-terminal domain, assuming the bent structure. In equilibrium, the complex exists in at least two different states. Apparent enthalpy and entropy changes, characterizing formations of intermediates, reflect association of the DNA with the C-terminal domain and gradual engagement of the catalytic domain by the nucleic acid. The intrinsic DNA-binding steps are entropy-driven processes accompanied by the net release of water molecules. The final conformational transition of the complex does not involve any large changes of the DNA topology, or the net release of the water molecules.
