Modular affinity-labeling of the cytosine demethylation base elements in DNA.
Article in Scientific reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
5-methylcytosine is the most studied DNA epigenetic modification, having been linked to diverse biological processes and disease states. The elucidation of cytosine demethylation has drawn added attention the three additional intermediate modifications involved in that pathway-5-hydroxymethylcytosine, 5-formylcytosine, and 5-carboxylcytosine-each of which may have distinct biological roles. Here, we extend a modular method for labeling base modifications in DNA to recognize all four bases involved in demethylation. We demonstrate both differential insertion of a single affinity tag (biotin) at the precise position of target elements and subsequent repair of the nicked phosphate backbone that remains following the procedure. The approach enables affinity isolation and downstream analyses without inducing widespread damage to the DNA.
