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

DNA not only plays a vital role in nature as fundamental hereditary material for storing genetic material, but also serves as well-defined functional material, for example, building blocks for the assembly of nanoscale bio-architectures by Watson-Crick base-pairing interaction. With the development of molecular biology, biotechnology and nanoscience, structural DNA nanotechnology has achieved numerous advances, contributing to the construction of various DNA nanostructures ranging from discrete objects to one dimensional (1D), two dimensional (2D), and three dimensional (3D) architectures. Among them, DNA tetrahedral nanoarchitecture is intensively studied because of simple 3D structure, easy design and unique properties, such as high rigidity, desirable biostability and efficient cellular uptake without auxiliary species. This review summarizes the research progress in the assembly of DNA tetrahedral objects and outlines the applications in biosensing, drug delivery and targeted therapy. Moreover, the dependence of biological activity of biomolecules on DNA tetrahedron-mediated spatially-controlled arrangement and great potential applications are discussed. In addition, the challenges in the design and clinic applications of DNA tetrahedron-based platforms are described, the perspectives towards biomedical applications are foreseen, and our understandings on further studies of DNA tetrahedron are provided, aiming to motivate the development of DNA nanotechnology and interdisciplinary research.
