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

Dinucleoside phosphoramidites containing a triazole internucleotide linkage flanked by locked nucleic acid (LNA) were synthesized and incorporated into oligonucleotides (ONs). ONs bearing both LNA and triazole at multiple sites were obtained and their biophysical properties including enzymatic stability and binding affinity for RNA and DNA targets were studied. t-LNAs with four incorporations of a dinucleoside monomer having LNA on either side of the triazole linkage bind to their RNA target with significantly higher affinity and greater specificity than unmodified oligonucleotides, and are remarkably stable to nuclease degradation. A similar but reduced effect on enzymatic stability and binding affinity was noted for LNA only on the 3'-side of the triazole linkage. Thus, by combining unnatural triazole linkages and LNA in one unit (t-LNA), we produced a promising class of ONs with reduced anionic charge and potential for antisense applications.
