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

Telomere DNA assumes a high-order G-quadruplex (G4) structure, stabilization of which prevents telomere lengthening by telomerase in cancer. Through applying combined molecular simulation methods, an investigation on the selective binding mechanism of anionic phthalocyanine 3,4',4'',4'''-tetrasulfonic acid (APC) and human hybrid (3 + 1) G4s was firstly performed at the atomic level. Compared to the groove binding mode of APC and the hybrid type I (hybrid-I) telomere G4, APC preferred to bind to the hybrid type II (hybrid-II) telomere G4 via end-stacking interactions, which showed much more favorable binding free energies. Analyses of the non-covalent interaction and binding free energy decomposition revealed a decisive role of van der Waals interaction in the binding of APC and telomere hybrid G4s. And the binding of APC and hybrid-II G4 that showed the highest binding affinity adopted the end-stacking binding mode to form the most extensive van der Waals interactions. These findings add new knowledge to the design of selective stabilizers targeting telomere G4 in cancer.
