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 population-shift mechanism can be used for rational re-engineering of structure-switching biosensors to enable their allosteric inhibition and activation. As a proof-of-principle example of this, we have introduced distal allosteric sites into molecular beacons, which are optical sensors for the detection of specific nucleic acid sequences. The binding of inhibitors and activators to these sites enabled the rational modulation of the sensor's target affinity-and thus its useful dynamic range-over 3 orders of magnitude. The convenience with which this was done suggests that the population-shift mechanism may prove to be a useful method by which allosteric regulation can be introduced into biosensors, "smart" biomaterials, and other artificial biotechnologies.
