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

DNA replication and repair reactions involve the addition of a deoxynucleoside monophosphate onto a growing DNA strand with the loss of pyrophosphate. This chemical reaction is also reversible; the addition of pyrophosphate generates a deoxynucleoside triphosphate, thereby shortening the DNA by one nucleotide. The forward DNA synthesis and reverse pyrophosphorolysis reactions strictly require the presence of divalent metals, usually magnesium, at the reactive center as cofactors. The overall equilibrium enzymatic reaction strongly favors DNA synthesis over pyrophosphorolysis with natural substrates. The DNA polymerase β chemical reaction has been structurally and kinetically characterized, employing natural and chemically modified substrates. Substituting an imido-moiety (NH) for the bridging oxygen between Pβ and Pγ of dGTP dramatically decreased the overall enzymatic activity and resulted in a chemical equilibrium that strongly favors the reverse reaction (i.e.,
