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

DNA carries more than the list of biochemical ingredients that drive the basic functions of living systems. The sequence of base pairs includes a multitude of structural and energetic signals, which determine the degree to which the long, threadlike molecule moves and how it responds to proteins and other molecules that control its processing and govern its packaging. The chemical composition of base pairs directs the spatial disposition and fluctuations of successive residues. The observed arrangements of these moieties in high-resolution protein-DNA crystal structures provide one of the best available estimates of the natural, sequence-dependent structure and deformability of the double-helical molecule. Here, we update the set of knowledge-based elastic potentials designed to describe the observed equilibrium structures and configurational fluctuations of the ten unique base-pair steps. The large number of currently available structures makes it possible to characterize the configurational preferences of the DNA base-pair steps within the context of their immediate neighbors, i.e., tetrameric context. Use of these knowledge-based potentials shows promise in accounting for known effects of sequence in long chain molecules, e.g., the degree of curvature reported in classic gel mobility studies and the recently reported sequence-dependent responses of supercoiled minicircles to nuclease cleavage.
