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

Nucleic acid - protein interactions are critical for regulating gene activation in the nucleus. In the cytoplasm, however, potential nucleic acid-protein functional interactions are less clear. The emergence of a large and expanding number of non-coding RNAs and DNA fragments raises the possibility that the cytoplasmic nucleic acids may interact with cytoplasmic cellular components to directly alter key biological processes within the cell. We now show that both natural and synthetic nucleic acids, collectively XNAs, when introduced to the cytoplasm of live cell cardiac myocytes, markedly enhance contractile function via a mechanism that is independent of new translation, activation of the TLR-9 pathway or by altered intracellular Ca
