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 development of a synthetic code that enables a sequence programmable feature like DNA represents a key aspect toward intelligent molecular systems. We developed herein the well-known dynamic covalent interaction between boronic acids (BAs) and catechols (CAs) into synthetic nucleobase analogs. Along a defined peptide backbone, BA or CA residues are arranged to enable sequence recognition to their complementary strand. Dynamic strand displacement and errors were elucidated thermodynamically to show that sequences are able to specifically select their partners. Unlike DNA, the pH dependency of BA/CA binding enables the dehybridization of complementary strands at pH 5.0. In addition, we demonstrate the sequence recognition at the macromolecular level by conjugating the cytochrome c protein to a complementary polyethylene glycol chain in a site-directed fashion.
