Couplings of character and of chirality in the origin of the genetic system.
Article in Journal of molecular evolution, 1993. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Data from the literature and new data presented here suggest that the genetic system (coding and protein synthesis) is based on relationships of character and structure between amino acids and nucleic acids. Character relationships seem to be anticodonic and structurally the greatest preferences are seen between the heteropair, L-amino acids and D-ribose nucleic acids. However, living systems using the other heteropair must have been equally likely. Homopairing (L-L and D-D) in living systems seems unlikely. Awareness of the heterocoupling of steric forms narrows somewhat the problem of understanding the origin of chirality.
