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 development of highly sensitive and rapid methods for detecting DNA is of critical importance. Here, we describe a strategy for the digital detection of target DNA at the femto-molar level. Individual DNA molecules were encoded with a single gold nanorod (AuNR), separated and enriched by magnetic immune-separation. The coding gold nanorods were then de-hybridized and dispersed into a gold nanosphere (AuNS) solution at a certain concentration, and both gold nanoparticles were immobilized on glass slides for dark-field microscopic imaging. Using an in-house Matlab program, the concentration of the target DNA was calculated based on the ratio of the coding gold nanorods to gold nanospheres. By combining the coding of individual biomolecules with a single gold nanorod and the use of gold nanospheres as an internal standard, a method for the rapid and accurate digital detection of target DNA to the femto-molar level was developed.
