Exploring potentially alternative non-canonical DNA duplex structures through simulation.
Article in Journal of biomolecular structure & dynamics, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Hopkins proposed an alternative and chirally distinct family of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) models that have antiparallel chains with 5'→3' senses opposite to those of the right-handed Watson-Crick (WC) family. Termed configuration II, this family of dsDNA models contains both right-handed (II-R) and left-handed (II-L) forms, with Z-DNA as an example of the latter. Relative interstrand binding energies for six DNA duplex models, two each of configuration I-R (standard WC canonical B-DNA), II-R, and II-L for the duplex d(CGCGAATTCGCG), have been estimated under identical conditions using MM-PBSA analysis from molecular dynamics trajectories using three different AMBER force fields. These simulations support the stereo chemical soundness of configuration II dsDNA forms. Recent force fields (Barcelona Supercomputing Center [BSC] [bsc1] and Olomouc 2015 [OL15]) successfully render stable II-L structures, whereas the previous force field, bsc0, generated stable II-R structures, although with an energy difference between II-R and II-L of ∼30 kcal/mol.
