Fluorometric determination of okadaic acid using a truncated aptamer.
Article in Mikrochimica acta, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. 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
Okadaic acid (OKA), a marine toxin produced by dinoflagellates, is responsible for most human diarrhetic shellfish poisoning-associated health disorders. A competitive displacement assay for OKA is described here. An OKA-binding aptamer was truncated with two sequences, one labeled with 6-carboxyfluorescein (FAM), and one with a quencher. On addition of OKA, it will bind to the aptamer and green fluorescence pops up because label and quencher become spatially separated. One of the truncated aptamers exhibis an excellent binding capability (Kd 2.77 nM) for OKA compared to its full-length aptamer (526 nM). The selectivity of the assay was proven by the successful fluorometric determination of OKA in the presence of common diarrhoetic toxins and in shellfish extracts. The detection limit is as low as 39 pg·mL
