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

This protocol describes a method based on iodine and a base as mild coupling reagents to synthetize deoxyribonucleic guanidines (DNGs)-oligodeoxynucleotide analogues with a guanidine backbone. DNGs display unique properties, such as high cellular uptake with low toxicity and increased stability against nuclease degradation, but have been impeded in their development by the requirement for toxic and iterative manual synthesis protocols. The novel synthesis method reported here eliminates the need for the toxic mercuric chloride and pungent thiophenol that were critical to previous DNG synthesis methods and translates their synthesis to a MerMade
