Autonomous DNA molecular motor tailor-designed to navigate DNA origami surface for fast complex motion and advanced nanorobotics.
Article in Science advances, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Nanorobots powered by designed DNA molecular motors on DNA origami platforms are vigorously pursued but still short of fully autonomous and sustainable operation, as the reported systems rely on manually operated or autonomous but bridge-burning molecular motors. Expanding DNA nanorobotics requires origami-based autonomous non-bridge-burning motors, but such advanced artificial molecular motors are rare, and their integration with DNA origami remains a challenge. Here, we report an autonomous non-bridge-burning DNA motor tailor-designed for a triangle DNA origami substrate. This is a translational bipedal molecular motor but demonstrates effective translocation on both straight and curved segments of a self-closed circular track on the origami, including sharp ~90° turns by a single hand-over-hand step. The motor is highly directional and attains a record-high speed among the autonomous artificial molecular motors reported to date. The resultant DNA motor-origami system, with its complex translational-rotational motion and big nanorobotic capacity, potentially offers a self-contained "seed" nanorobotic platform to automate or scale up many applications.
