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

Multivalent lectin-glycan interactions (MLGIs) are widespread in biology and hold the key to many therapeutic applications. However, the underlying structural and biophysical mechanisms for many MLGIs remain poorly understood, limiting our ability to design glycoconjugates to potently target specific MLGIs for therapeutic intervention. Glycosylated nanoparticles have emerged as a powerful biophysical probe for MLGIs, although how nanoparticle shape affects the MLGI molecular mechanisms remains largely unexplored. Herein, we have prepared fluorescent quantum nanorods (QRs), densely coated with α-1,2-manno-biose ligands (QR-DiMan), as multifunctional probes to investigate how scaffold geometry affects the MLGIs of a pair of closely related, tetrameric viral receptors, DC-SIGN and DC-SIGNR. We have previously shown that a DiMan-capped spherical quantum dot (QD-DiMan) gives weak cross-linking interactions with DC-SIGNR but strong simultaneous binding with DC-SIGN. Against the elongated QR-DiMan, DC-SIGN retains similarly strong simultaneous binding of all four binding sites with a single QR-DiMan (apparent
