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

For the first time, a metal-mediated base pair has been used to modulate the affinity of an aptamer towards its target. In particular, two artificial imidazole 2'-deoxyribonucleosides (Im) were incorporated into various positions of an established ATP-binding aptamer (ATP, adenosine triphosphate), resulting in the formation of three aptamer derivatives bearing Im:Im mispairs with a reduced ATP affinity. A fluorescence spectroscopy assay and a binding assay with immobilized ATP were used to evaluate the aptamer derivatives. Upon the addition of one Ag(I) ion per mispair, stabilizing Im-Ag(I)-Im base pairs were formed. As a result, the affinity of the aptamer derivative towards ATP is restored again. The silver(I)-mediated base-pair formation was particularly suitable to modulate the aptamer function when the Im:Im mispairs (and hence the resulting metal-mediated base pairs) were located close to the ATP-binding pocket of the aptamer. Being able to trigger the aptamer function opens new possibilities for applications of oligonucleotides.
