Bioconjugated, Single-Use Biosensor for the Detection of Biomarkers of Prostate Cancer.
Article in ACS omega, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Prostate cancer is prevalent among cancers in men. A simple method for screening of reliable biomarkers is pivotal for early detection of prostate cancer. Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) has been a commonly used biomarker for prostate cancer, in spite of its false-positive limitation. On the other hand, alpha-methylacyl-CoA racemase (AMACR), a metabolic enzyme, has been proven to be a highly expressed biomarker in prostate cancer cells. Therefore, a method or tool, which can detect either PSA or AMACR or both simply, cost effectively, and with high sensitivity and selectivity is desirable. We describe a novel bioconjugated, single-use biosensor capable of detecting both PSA and AMACR antigens in undiluted human serum. The preparation of the biosensor by the bioconjugation mechanism occurred within a day, which could be completed prior to actual testing. The effectiveness of the bioconjugation mechanism and the coverage of the electrode surface of the biosensor were experimentally assessed. Measurements of PSA and AMACR antigens and the specificity of the biosensor were carried out using differential pulse voltammetry. This biosensor was single-use and cost-effective and required a small quantity of test medium and relatively short preparation time, providing a very attractive biosensor for the detection of the biomarkers of prostate cancer.
