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

Exploring aggregation-enhanced emission (AEE) of gold nanoclusters (Au NCs) is beneficial for extending their applications in sensing and molecular information processing. Herein, we present the first report of a protein-induced AEE effect of Au NCs. When human serum albumin (HSA) is mixed with glutathione-capped Au NCs under appropriate pH conditions, the Au NCs undergo extensive aggregation and exhibit significantly enhanced emission, attributed to the electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions between HSA and the NCs. Such an AEE effect is specific to serum albumin over a variety of other proteins, which facilitates the development of a facile approach for HSA determination. This sensing method displays satisfactory recoveries of 96.0-98.7% when it is applied to HSA detection in artificial urine. Moreover, the AEE effect is suited to the fabrication of AND and INHIBIT logic gates by using HSA and pH/protein-binding drug as inputs and the emission as output.
