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

Ligation is a common treatment for the resulting DNA nanostructures to gain extra stability. In this study, we aim to utilize ligation as an active process in self-assembly instead of post-assembly stabilization. Our investigation focuses on constructs with transiently paired segments. Transient base pairing fails to hold up the assembled complex, but ligation treatment turns the transient base pairing into permanent ones and thus induces the desired self-assembly. We apply the method to a number of assembly tasks, leading to the successful construction of discrete and extended DNA nanostructures. Furthermore, we apply the ligation-based method in the hierarchical assembly of preformed DNA nanostructure units into higher-order superstructures.
