Energetic basis of hydrogen bond formation in aqueous solution.
Article in European biophysics journal : EBJ, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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 thermodynamic forces driving the formation of H-bonds in macromolecules have long been the subject of speculation, theory and experiment. Comparison of the energetic parameters of AT and GC base pairs in DNA duplexes has recently led to the realisation that formation of a 'naked' hydrogen bond, i.e. without other accompanying Van der Waals close contacts, is a non-enthalpic process driven by the entropy increase resulting from release of tightly bound water molecules from the component polar groups. This unexpected conclusion finds a parallel in the formation of ionic bonds, for example between the amino groups of DNA binding proteins and the oxygens of DNA phosphate groups that are also non-enthalpic and entropy driven. The thermodynamic correspondence between these two types of polar non-covalent bonding implies that the non-enthalpic nature of base pairing in DNA is not particular to that specific structural circumstance.
