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

Understanding the mechanism of Na(+)/K(+)-dependent spectral conversion of human telomeric G-quadruplex (G4) sequences has been limited not only because of the structural polymorphism but also the lack of sufficient structural information at different stages along the conversion process for one given oligonucleotide. In this work, we have determined the topology of the Na(+) form of Tel23 G4, which is the same hybrid form as the K(+) form of Tel23 G4 despite the distinct spectral patterns in their respective nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and circular dichroism spectra. The spectral difference, particularly the well-resolved imino proton NMR signals, allows us to monitor the structural conversion from Na(+) form to K(+) form during Na(+)/K(+) exchange. Time-resolved NMR experiments of hydrogen-deuterium exchange and hybridization clearly exclude involvement of the global unfolding for the fast Na(+)/K(+) spectral conversion. In addition, the K(+) titration monitored by NMR reveals that the Na(+)/K(+) exchange in Tel23 G4 is a two-step process. The addition of K(+) significantly stabilizes the unfolding kinetics of Tel23 G4. These results offer a possible explanation of rapid spectral conversion of Na(+)/K(+) exchange and insight into the mechanism of Na(+)/K(+) structural conversion in human telomeric G4s.
