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 essential and effective characteristics of a double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) confined in a nanochannel is revisited by employing the rigorous full numerical approach of Molecular Dynamics (MD). The deformation of dsDNA and wall-biomolecule interaction which is critical in highly confined regime has been precisely imposed in numerical simulations. The numerical approach has been justified against available theoretical outcomes. A new and general expression for DNA electrophoretic mobility versus DNA length is extracted from numerical simulation which is out of reach of experimental methods due to practical shortcomings. The newly derived expression suggests an essential correction in the previously proposed expression for the critical case of small DNA molecules and reveals an astonishingly unbeknown trend of small DNA's mobility. Sub-molecular phenomenon of dsDNA melting under the condition of large external force is also studied. Assuming strong electric field exertion, the MD approach aptly demonstrates the elaborate melting phenomenon for dsDNA in sub-molecular scale.
