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

Oxidative DNA lesions such as 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG) and abasic (AP) sites contribute to mutagenesis and genetic instability. H-DNA, a naturally occurring intramolecular triplex structure, promotes genetic instability and is susceptible to oxidative damage. Here, we examined how oxidative lesions distribute within an H-DNA-forming sequence. Although oxidative stress increased oxidized purines overall, no template-dependent differences were detected at a distal B-DNA locus. In contrast, AP sites and FPG-sensitive lesions were enriched within the H-DNA region relative to the B-DNA control, even under basal conditions. These findings indicate that H-DNA topology enhances local susceptibility to oxidative damage and shapes the spatial distribution of oxidative DNA lesions that can contribute to mutagenesis.
