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

Fluorescent molecular rotors (FMRs) are critical tools for probing nucleic acid structure and function. Many valuable FMRs have been incorporated into oligonucleotides, although the methods of doing so can be cumbersome. Development of synthetically simple, high yielding modular methods to fine-tune dye performance is crucial to expand the biotechnological applications of oligonucleotides. Herein, we report the utility of 6-hydroxy-indanone (6HI) with a glycol backbone to serve as a handle for on-strand aldehyde capture as a modular aldol approach for site-specific insertion of internal FMR chalcones. Aldol reactions with aromatic aldehydes containing N-donors proceed in high yield to create modified DNA oligonucleotides, which in the duplex match the stability of the fully paired canonical B-form with strong stacking interactions between the planar probe and the flanking base pairs, as evidenced by molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The FMR chalcones possess remarkable quantum yields (
