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

To display favorable fluorescent properties, the non-emissive native nucleosides need to be modified. Here we present a motif that relies on conjugating 5-membered aromatic heterocycles (e.g., thiophene) to a 6-azapyrimidine (1,2,4-triazine) core. Synthetic accessibility and desirable photophysical properties make these nucleosides attractive candidates for enzymatic incorporation and biochemical assays. While 6-azauridine triphosphate is known to be poorly tolerated by polymerases in RNA synthesis, we illustrate that conjugating a thiophene ring at position 5 overcomes such limitations, facilitating its T7 RNA polymerase-mediated in vitro transcription incorporation into RNA constructs. We further show that the modified transcripts can be ligated to longer oligonucleotides to form singly modified RNAs, as illustrated for an A-site hairpin model RNA construct, which was employed to visualize aminoglycoside antibiotics binding.
