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

Rolling circle amplification (RCA) is one of the most promising nucleic acid detection technologies and has been widely used in the molecular diagnosis of disease. Padlock probes are often used to form circular templates, which are the core of RCA. However, RCA often suffers from insufficient specificity and sensitivity. Here we report a reconstruction strategy for conventional padlock probes to promote their overall performance in nucleic acid detection while maintaining probe functions uncompromised. When two rationally designed stem-loops were strategically placed at the two terminals of linear padlock probes, the specificity of target recognition was enhanced and the negative signal was significantly delayed. Our design achieved the best single-base discrimination compared with other structures and over a 1000-fold higher sensitivity than that of the conventional padlock probe, validating the effectiveness of this reconstruction. In addition, the underlying mechanisms of our design were elucidated through molecular dynamics simulations, and the versatility was validated with longer and shorter padlocks targeting the same target, as well as five additional targets (four miRNAs and dengue virus - 2 RNA mimic (DENV-2)). Finally, clinical applicability in multiplex detection was demonstrated by testing real plasma samples. Our exploration of the structures of nucleic acids provided another perspective for developing high-performance detection systems, improving the efficacy of practical detection strategies, and advancing clinical diagnostic research.
