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

The understanding of DNA-surfactant interactions is important for fundamental physical biology and developing biomedical applications. In the present study, we demonstrated a DNA-surfactant nano-machine model by modulating the compaction of DNA in dodecyldimethylamine oxide (DDAO) solutions. By controlling DDAO concentration and pH of solution, we are able to adjust the compacting force of DNA so as to pull biomolecular subunits connected to it. The pulling force of the machine depends on DDAO concentration and pH of solution, ranging from near zero to about 4.6 pN for 10 mM DDAO concentration at pH = 4. The response time of the machine is about 3 minutes for contracting and 2 minutes for releasing in 5 mM DDAO solution. We found that DDAO has no significant influence on DNA under basic conditions, but compacts DNA under acidic conditions, which is enhanced with decreasing pH of solution. Meanwhile, we found the accompanying charge inversion of DNA in the process of DNA compaction by DDAO.
