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

Understanding interactions between cations and DNA is essential for elucidating the structural dynamics of this fundamental biomolecule. While B-DNA is well known to dominate in long genomic DNA under physiological ionic conditions, its stability in very short DNA fragments-particularly in dilute solutions and in crude oligonucleotide preparations-has remained largely unexplored. Previous spectroscopic studies have primarily focused on long DNA, highly purified oligonucleotides, or high-salt environments, where collective polyion effects dominate. In contrast, the present results demonstrate that even in the absence of chain overlap and under low-salt conditions, Mg
