Wavelength-Selective Activation of Photocaged DNAzymes for Metal Ion Sensing in Live Cells.
Article in ACS omega, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
RNA-cleaving DNAzymes are widely applied as sensors for detecting metal ions in environmental samples owing to their high sensitivity and selectivity, but their use for sensing biological metal ions in live cells is challenging because constitutive sensors fail to report the spatiotemporal heterogeneity of biological processes. Photocaged DNAzymes can be activated by light for sensing purposes that need spatial and temporal resolution. Studying complex biological processes requires logic photocontrol, but unfortunately all the literature-reported photocaged DNAzymes working in live cells cannot be selectively controlled by light irradiation at different wavelengths. In this work, we developed photocaged DNAzymes responsive to UV and visible light using a general synthetic method based on phosphorothioate chemistry. Taking the Zn
