An enzyme-based approach for highly efficient self-replication of DNA origami dimers.
Article in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Self-replication and exponential growth are essential to all living things, the driving force for Darwinian evolution, and potentially useful in nanotechnology for large-scale production of nanoscopic materials. An artificial (nonliving) self-replication system has been shown to exhibit exponential growth and selection using DNA monomer origami tiles templated on a dimer seed. That system purposefully avoided the use of enzymes to get a hint of how self-replication might have evolved in a prebiotic world by using
