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

We present here the high-resolution structure of an antiparallel DNA triplex in which a monomer of para-twisted intercalating nucleic acid (para-TINA: (R)-1-O-[4-(1-pyrenylethynyl)phenylmethyl]glycerol) is covalently inserted as a bulge in the third strand of the triplex. TINA is a potent modulator of the hybridization properties of DNA sequences with extremely useful properties when conjugated in G-rich oligonucleotides. The insertion of para-TINA between two guanines of the triplex imparts a high thermal stabilization (ΔTM = 9ºC) to the structure and enhances the quality of NMR spectra by increasing the chemical shift dispersion of proton signals near the TINA location. The structural determination reveals that TINA intercalates between two consecutive triads, causing only local distortions in the structure. The two aromatic moieties of TINA are nearly coplanar, with the phenyl ring intercalating between the flanking guanine bases in the sequence, and the pyrene moiety situated between the Watson-Crick base pair of the two first strands. The precise position of TINA within the triplex structure reveals key TINA-DNA interactions, which explains the high stabilization observed and will aid in the design of new and more efficient binders to DNA.
