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 describe the conformational ensemble of the single-stranded r(UCAAUC) oligonucleotide obtained using extensive molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and Rosetta's FARFAR2 algorithm. The conformations observed in MD consist of A-form-like structures and variations thereof. These structures are not present in the pool generated using FARFAR2. By comparing with available nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements, we show that the presence of both A-form-like and other extended conformations is necessary to quantitatively explain experimental data. To further validate our results, we measure solution X-ray scattering (SAXS) data on the RNA hexamer and find that simulations result in more compact structures than observed from these experiments. The integration of simulations with NMR via a maximum entropy approach shows that small modifications to the MD ensemble lead to an improved description of the conformational ensemble. Nevertheless, we identify persisting discrepancies in matching experimental SAXS data.
