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

We report on a paper-based sensor capable of performing template-independent DNA synthesis by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT). Importantly, we observed that TdT efficiently incorporates fluorescently labeled dUTP on to 3'-OH ends of DNA strands in a strictly controllable manner on cellulose paper, in comparison to its distributive mode of DNA synthesis in solution. Due to the high roughness and porous nature of cellulose paper, we attribute this controllable DNA polymerization to the pore confinement effect on the catalytic behaviour of TdT. Taking advantage of this finding, we proposed a paper-assisted TdT (PAT) assay for absolute quantification of alkylated DNA lesions (N7-methylguanine), DNA deamination (cytosine-to-uracil) and DNA oxidation (8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine) by combining various DNA glycosylases. This PAT assay provides a low-cost, high throughput and easy to use method for quantifying the absolute levels of various types of DNA lesions, thus making it well-suited for drug development, genotoxicity testing, and environmental toxicology.
