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 describe a rapid fluorescence indicator displacement assay (R-FID) to evaluate the affinity and the selectivity of compounds binding to different DNA structures. We validated the assay using a library of 30 well-known nucleic acid binders containing a variety chemical scaffolds. We used a combination of principal component analysis and hierarchical clustering analysis to interpret the results obtained. This analysis classified compounds based on selectivity for AT-rich, GC-rich and G4 structures. We used the FID assay as a secondary screen to test the binding selectivity of an additional 20 compounds selected from the NCI Diversity Set III library that were identified as G4 binders using a thermal shift assay. The results showed G4 binding selectivity for only a few of the 20 compounds. Overall, we show that this R-FID assay, coupled with PCA and HCA, provides a useful tool for the discovery of ligands selective for particular nucleic acid structures.
