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 report G-quadruplex formation between peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) composed of (L)Kγ-PNA-G monomers and a known portion of human telomeric DNA that adopts three G3 tracts via intramolecular hydrogen bonding. The resulting complex is a bimolecular PNA-DNA heteroquadruplex. In this Letter, we show that introduction of a γ-modification and addition of a peptide ligand does not disrupt the heteroquadruplex. Although the unmodified PNA1 forms a quadruplex with itself, the γ-substituted PNAs (PNA2-PNA6) do not form G-quadruplexes on their own, at even high concentrations. The selectivity of these PNAs could influence the design of new quadruplex-targeting molecules or allow the quadruplex structure to be used as a scaffold for multivalent display of protein binding ligands.
