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

Developing chemical toolkits for mRNA modification has remained an immense challenge, driven by the inherent difficulties in targeting mRNA molecules. Antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) offer a promising framework for targeting specific mRNA sequences, yet they do not possess the capacity to alter the structure of mRNA except through enzyme-mediated hydrolysis. We developed a platinum-(IV)-ASO strategy that combines the sequence specificity of ASOs with the reactivity of platinum to functionalize nucleic acids, including short RNA and mRNA, in a selective enzyme-free manner. Access to Pt-(IV)-ASO constructs was made possible by an equatorial Pt-(IV) ammine derivatization strategy, allowing for the conjugation of carboxylic acids directly to the Pt core. Reactivity with 21-mer RNA and full-length mRNA by Pt-ASO constructs was demonstrated, and the conjugated products were characterized using a suite of orthogonal techniques, such as electrophoretic mobility shift assay, MALDI-TOF MS, temperature-dependent dissociation assay, and RT-qPCR. Constructs were optimized for their reactivity and selectivity, allowing for Pt-(IV)-PMO constructs with subnanomolar IC
