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.

Abstract
Sequencing the DNA nucleobases is essential in the diagnosis and treatment of many diseases related to human genes. In this article, the encapsulation of DNA nucleobases with some of the important synthesized chiral (7, 6), (8, 6), and (10, 8) carbon nanotubes were investigated. The structures were modeled by applying density functional theory based on tight binding method (DFTB) by considering semi-empirical basis sets. Encapsulating DNA nucleobases on the inside of CNTs caused changes in the electronic properties of the selected chiral CNTs. The results confirmed that van der Waals (vdW) interactions, π-orbitals interactions, non-bonded electron pairs, and the presence of high electronegative atoms are the key factors for these changes. The result of electronic parameters showed that among the CNTs, CNT (8, 6) is a suitable choice in sequencing guanine (G) and cytosine (C) DNA nucleobases. However, they are not able to sequence adenine (A) and thymine (T). According to the band gap energy engineering approach and absorption energy, the presence of G and C DNA nucleobases decreased the band gap energy of CNTs. Hence selected CNTs suggested as biosensor substrates for sequencing G and C DNA nucleobases.
