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

The oxidation of glucagon, which is one of the key hormones in glucose homeostasis, was studied at electrodes modified with carbon nanotubes (CNT) that were dispersed in a polysaccharide adhesive chitosan (CHIT). Such electrodes displayed improved resistance to fouling, which allowed for the investigation of both the electrolysis/mass spectrometry and electroanalysis of glucagon. The off-line electrospray ionization and tandem mass spectrometric analyses showed that the -4 Da mass change to glucagon upon electrolysis at CNT was due to the electrooxidation of its tryptophan (W25) and dityrosine (Y10, Y13) residues. The methionine residue of glucagon did not contribute to its oxidation. The amperometric determination of glucagon yielded the limit of detection equal to ∼20 nM (E = 0.800 V, pH 7.40, S/N = 3), sensitivity of 0.46 A M(-1) cm(-2), linear dynamic range up to 2.0 μM (R(2) = 0.998), response time <5 s, and good signal stability. Free tryptophan and tyrosine yielded comparable analytical figures of merit. The direct amperometric determination of unlabeled glucagon at CHIT-CNT electrodes is the first example of a rapid alternative to the complex analytical assays of this peptide.
