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

Modified DNA aptamers incorporated with amino-acid like side chains or drug-like ligands can offer unique advantages and enhance specificity as affinity ligands. Thy-1 membrane glycoprotein (THY1 or CD90) was previously identified as a biomarker candidate of neovasculature in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The current study developed and evaluated modified DNA X-aptamers targeting THY1 in PDAC. The expression and glycosylation of THY1 in PDAC tumor tissues were assessed using immunohistochemistry and quantitative proteomics. Bead-based X-aptamer library that contains 10
