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

The tremendous demand for detecting methylated DNA has stimulated intensive studies on developing fast single-molecule techniques with excellent sensitivity, reliability, and selectivity. However, most of these methods cannot directly detect DNA methylation at single-molecule level, which need either special recognizing elements or chemical modification of DNA. Here, we report a tetramethylammonium-based nanopore (termed TMA-NP) sensor that can quickly and accurately detect locus-specific DNA methylation, without bisulfite conversion, chemical modification or enzyme amplification. In the TMA-NP sensor, TMA-Cl is utilized as a nanopore-filling electrolyte to record the ion current change in a single nanopore triggered by methylated DNA translocation through the pore. Because of its methyl-philic nature, TMA can insert into the methylcytosine-guanine (
