The braid index of DNA double crossover polyhedral links.
Article in PloS one, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
In this paper, the authors study the mathematical properties of a class of alternating links called polyhedral links which have been used to model DNA polyhedra. The motivation of such studies is to provide guidance and aid in the research of the properties of certain DNA molecules. For example, such studies can provide characterizations of the structural complexity of DNA molecules. In an earlier work, Cheng and Jin studied the mathematical properties of such polyhedral links and were able to determine the braid index of a double crossover polyhedral link with 4 turn. However, the braid index of a double crossover polyhedral link with 4.5 turn remained an unsolved problem to this date, even though the graphs that admit the double crossover polyhedral links with 4.5 turn have been synthesized. In this paper, we provide a complete formulation of the braid index of a double crossover polyhedral link with an arbitrary turn number. Our approach is more general and it allows us to completely determine the braid indices for a much larger class of links. In the case of the double crossover polyhedral links, our formulation of the braid index is a simple formula based on a simpler graph used as a template to build the double crossover polyhedral links.
