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 single stranded DNA oligonucleotides known as aptamers have the capacity to bind proteins and other molecules and offer great therapeutic potential. Further work is required to optimize their function and to diminish their susceptibility to nuclease degradation. We report here on the synthesis and supramolecular self-assembly of DNA-peptide amphiphiles that form high aspect ratio nanofibers and display aptamers for platelet-derived growth factor. The nanofibers were found to bind the growth factor with an affinity that was fivefold greater than the free aptamer. We also observed that the aptamer displayed by the supramolecular nanostructures was eight times more nuclease resistant than free aptamer. In order to highlight the therapeutic potential of these supramolecular systems, we demonstrated the improved inhibition of proliferation when the growth factor was bound to aptamers displayed by the nanofibers.
