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

A method to build sequence-restricted DNA dumbbells was developed. 5'-exonuclease converts end sequences of DNA targets into sticky ends. Self-looping oligonucleotides with complementary 3'-overhangs are ligated to form dumbbells by DNA polymerase and ligase in a sequence-restricted manner. These reactions proceed in one pot at one temperature. We demonstrated one use of this method to 'tunnel' sequencing libraries into dumbbells for the Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) platform. Readouts of an Illumina P5/P7-ended 16S library from a standard microbial community confirmed successful tunneling. Twelve fecal samples additionally showed significant correlations between standard and tunneled 16S sequence variants on the PacBio platform. We further extended the method at a genomic scale to build a ∼0.45 Mbp giant dumbbell on chromosome 6. Sequences inside the dumbbells were successfully protected from a cocktail of exonucleases. Roughly 11-fold enrichment was achieved for the dumbbell-guarded region compared to the vicinity.
