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 has emerged as an appealing material for information storage due to its great storage density and durability. Random reading and rewriting are essential tasks for practical large-scale data storage. However, they are currently difficult to implement simultaneously in a single DNA-based storage system, strongly limiting their practicability. Here, a "Cell Disk" storage system is presented, achieving high-density in vivo DNA data storage that enables both random reading and rewriting. In this system, each yeast cell is used as a chamber to store information, similar to a "disk block" but with the ability to self-replicate. Specifically, each genome of yeast cell has a customized CRISPR/Cas9-based "lock-and-key" module inserted, which allows selective retrieval, erasure, or rewriting of the targeted cell "block" from a pool of cells ("disk"). Additionally, a codec algorithm with lossless compression ability is developed to improve the information density of each cell "block". As a proof of concept, target-specific reading and rewriting of the compressed data from a mimic cell "disk" comprising up to 10
