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

A set of modified 2'-deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs) bearing a linear or branched alkane, indole or phenyl group linked through ethynyl or alkyl spacer were synthesized and used as substrates for polymerase synthesis of hypermodified DNA by primer extension (PEX). Using the alkyl-linked dNTPs, the polymerase synthesized up to 22-mer fully modified oligonucleotide (ON), whereas using the ethynyl-linked dNTPs, the enzyme was able to synthesize even long sequences of >100 modified nucleotides in a row. In PCR, the combinations of all four modified dNTPs showed only linear amplification. Asymmetric PCR or PEX with separation or digestion of the template strand can be used for synthesis of hypermodified single-stranded ONs, which are monodispersed polymers displaying four different substituents on DNA backbone in sequence-specific manner. The fully modified ONs hybridized with complementary strands and modified DNA duplexes were found to exist in B-type conformation (B- or C-DNA) according to CD spectral analysis. The modified DNA can be replicated with high fidelity to natural DNA through PCR and sequenced. Therefore, this approach has a promising potential in generation and selection of hypermodified aptamers and other functional polymers.
