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 interaction of chemical and physical agents with genetic material can lead to almost 80 different DNA damage formations. The targeted intentional DNA damage by radiotherapy or chemotherapy is a front-line anticancer therapy. An interstrand cross-link can result from ionization radiation or specific chemical agents, such as trans-/cisplatin activity. Here, the influence of the adenine and thymidine (AT) interstrand linkage, the covalent bond between the adenine N6 and thymidine C5 methylene group, on the isolated base pair as well as double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) was taken into quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical (QM/MM) consideration at the m062x/6-31+G*:UFF level of theory in the aqueous phase. All the results presented in this article, for the first time, show that an AT-interstrand cross-link (ICL) changes the positive and negative charge migration process due to a higher activation energy forced by the cross-link's presence. However, the final radical cation destination in cross-linked DNA is left in the same place as in a native double-stranded-deoxyoligonucleotide. Additionally, the direction of the radical anion transfer was found to be opposite to that of native dsDNA. Therefore, it can be postulated that the appearance of the AT-ICL does not disturb the hole migration in the double helix, with subsequent effective changes in the electron migration process.
