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
Sequence context influences structural characteristics and repair of DNA adducts, but there is limited information on how epigenetic modulation affects conformational heterogeneity and bypass of DNA lesions. Lesions derived from the environmental pollutant 2-nitrofluorene have been extensively studied as chemical carcinogenesis models; they adopt a sequence-dependent mix of two significant conformers: major groove binding (B) and base-displaced stacked (S). We report a conformation-dependent bypass of the N-(2'-deoxyguanosin-8-yl)-7-fluoro-2-aminofluorene (dG-FAF) lesion in epigenetic sequence contexts (d[5'-CTTCTC#G*NCCTCATTC-3'], where C# is C or 5-methylcytosine (5mC), G* is G or G-FAF, and N is A, T, C or G). FAF-modified sequences with a 3' flanking pyrimidine were better bypassed when the 5' base was 5mC, whereas sequences with a 3' purine exhibited the opposite effect. The conformational basis behind these variations differed; for -CG*C- and -CG*T-, bypass appeared to be inversely correlated with population of the duplex-destabilizing S conformer. On the other hand, the connection between conformation and a decrease in bypass for flanking purines in the 5mC sequences relative to C was more complex. It could be related to the emergence of a disruptive non-S/B conformation. The present work provides novel conformational insight into how 5mC influences the bypass efficiency of bulky DNA damage.
