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

Multiplexed nucleic acid sensing methods with high specificity are vital for clinical diagnostics and infectious disease control, especially in the postpandemic era. Nanopore sensing techniques have developed in the past two decades, offering versatile tools for biosensing while enabling highly sensitive analyte measurements at the single-molecule level. Here, we establish a nanopore sensor based on DNA dumbbell nanoswitches for multiplexed nucleic acid detection and bacterial identification. The DNA nanotechnology-based sensor switches from an "open" into a "closed" state when a target strand hybridizes to two sequence-specific sensing overhangs. The loop in the DNA pulls two groups of dumbbells together. The change in topology results in an easily recognized peak in the current trace. Simultaneous detection of four different sequences was achieved by assembling four DNA dumbbell nanoswitches on one carrier. The high specificity of the dumbbell nanoswitch was verified by distinguishing single base variants in DNA and RNA targets using four barcoded carriers in multiplexed measurements. By combining multiple dumbbell nanoswitches with barcoded DNA carriers, we identified different bacterial species even with high sequence similarity by detecting strain specific 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) fragments.
