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

Oligo(dG).oligo(dC)- or short poly(dG).poly(dC)-containing fragments were enriched and cloned by means of Mg2+-dependent triplex affinity capture and subsequent cloning procedures. A library constructed after three cycles of enrichment showed that approximately 80% of the clones in the supercoiled form formed a complex with labeled oligonucleotide (dG)34. However, while the rest of the clones retained the ability to form a complex (type I clones), 90.9% failed to form a complex when they were linearized. This group of DNA was abundant in the genomic DNA, although it showed only approximately 3-fold enrichment by one cycle of affinity capture. This group was further classified into two species (types II and III) based on complex formation ability after phenol extraction. Type II clones retained the complex formation ability after treatment, while the human telomere [(TTAGGG)n] and telomere-like [(TGGAA)n] or [(TGGAG)n] sequences belonging to type III clones did not. Serial deletion experiments and the binding assays using oligonucleotides confirmed that the repetitive units containing T(G)nT ( n = 3-5) tracts or (G)n-motifs (n >/= 3) were the sites of complex formation for type II and III clones. On the other hand, type I clones contained poly(dG).poly(dC) tracts at least 10 nt long, and DNase I-footprinting analysis indicated that these tracts were the sites of complex formation.
