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 proofreading activity of the archaeal family B DNA polymerases enables PCR with high fidelity. However, thermostable proofreading DNA polymerases occasionally failed to amplify target fragment that could be amplified by Taq DNA polymerase. We have previously showed that G-rich sequences, which form G-quadruplex, can bind to and inhibit proofreading DNA polymerases. Here we showed that single-stranded oligonucleotides containing sequences of TT(N)mGCCTC can bind and inhibit archaeal family B DNA polymerases but not Taq DNA polymerase. It is very likely that TT(N)mGCCTC inhibits thermostable DNA polymerases during PCR in a single-stranded form. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first example of DNA sequence that could inhibit DNA polymerase in its single-stranded form.
