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

Isothermal, enzyme-free amplification methods based on DNA strand-displacement reactions show great promise for applications in biosensing and disease diagnostics but operating such systems within biological environments remains extremely challenging due to the susceptibility of DNA to nuclease degradation. Here, we report a catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) circuit constructed from nuclease-resistant l-DNA that is capable of unimpeded signal amplification in the presence of 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS). The superior biostability of the l-DNA CHA circuit relative to its native d-DNA counterpart was clearly demonstrated through a direct comparison of the two systems (d versus l) under various conditions. Importantly, we show that the l-CHA circuit can be sequence-specifically interfaced with an endogenous d-nucleic acid biomarker via an achiral peptide nucleic acid (PNA) intermediary, enabling catalytic detection of the target in FBS. Overall, this work establishes a blueprint for the detection of low-abundance nucleic acids in harsh biological environments and provides further impetus for the construction of DNA nanotechnology using l-oligonucleotides.
