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

Enzymatic DNA synthesis (EDS) is a promising benchtop and user-friendly method of nucleic acid synthesis that, instead of solvents and phosphoramidites, uses mild aqueous conditions and enzymes. For applications such as protein engineering and spatial transcriptomics that require either oligo pools or arrays with high sequence diversity, the EDS method needs to be adapted and certain steps in the synthesis process spatially decoupled. Here, we have used a synthesis cycle comprising a first step of site-specific silicon microelectromechanical system inkjet dispensing of terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase enzyme and 3' blocked nucleotide, and a second step of bulk slide washing to remove the 3' blocking group. By repeating the cycle on a substrate with an immobilized DNA primer, we show that microscale spatial control of nucleic acid sequence and length is possible, which, here, are assayed by hybridization and gel electrophoresis. This work is distinctive for enzymatically synthesizing DNA in a highly parallel manner with single base control.
