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 microarrays are promising tools for fast and highly parallel DNA detection by means of fluorescence or gold nanoparticle labeling. However, substrate modification with silanes (as a prerequisite for capture DNA binding) often leads to inhomogeneous surfaces and/or nonspecific binding of the labeled DNA. We examined both different substrate cleaning and activating protocols and also different blocking strategies for optimizing the procedures, especially those for nanoparticle labeling. Contact angle measurements as well as fluorescence microscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM), and a flatbed scanner were used to analyze the multiple-step process. Although the examined different cleaning and activating protocols resulted in considerably different contact angles, meaning different substrate wettability, silanization led to similar hydrophobic surfaces which could be revealed as smooth surfaces of about 2-4 nm roughness. The two examined silanes (3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GOPS) and 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES)) differed in their DNA binding homogeneity, maximum signal intensities, and sensitivity. Nonspecific gold binding on APTES/PDC surfaces could be blocked by treatment in 3% bovine serum albumin (BSA).
