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

Recent advances in constructing a structured DNA assembly whose configuration can be dynamically changed in response to external stimuli have demanded the development of an efficient computational modeling approach to expedite its design process. Here, we present a computational framework capable of analyzing both equilibrium and non-equilibrium dynamics of structured DNA assemblies at the molecular level. The framework employs Langevin dynamics with structural and hydrodynamic finite element models that describe mechanical, electrostatic, base stacking, and hydrodynamic interactions. Equilibrium dynamic analysis for various problems confirms the solution accuracy at a near-atomic resolution, comparable to molecular dynamics simulations and experimental measurements. Furthermore, our model successfully simulates a long-time-scale close-to-open-to-close dynamic reconfiguration of the switch structure in response to changes in ion concentration. We expect that the proposed model will offer a versatile way of designing responsive and reconfigurable DNA machines.
