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

We use mechanical unfolding of single DNA hairpins with modified bases to accurately assess intra- and intermolecular forces in nucleic acids. As expected, the modification stabilizes the hybridized hairpin, but we also observe intriguing stacking interactions in the unfolded hairpin. Our study highlights the benefit of using base-modified nucleic acids in force-spectroscopy.
