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

G-quadruplex has been an emerging target for drug design due to its physiologically important roles in oncology. A number of quadruplex-interactive ligands have been developed by synthetic and medicinal chemists over the past decades. However, the great challenge still remains that the method for detecting the specific targeting of these ligands to the G-quadruplex structures in cells is still lacking. Herein, a detection system for directly identifying the specific targeting of a ligand to DNA G-quadruplexes in cells was constructed by using a small-molecular fluorescent probe (IMT) as a fluorescent indicator. Four typical ligands have been successfully evaluated, demonstrating the promising application of this detection system in the screening and evaluation of quadruplex-specific therapeutic agents.
