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 a sample substrate with superior performance for desorption and ionization of analyte is the key issue to ameliorate the quality of mass spectra for measurements of small molecules in surface-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (SALDI-MS). Herein, the homogeneous sample substrate of gold nanoparticle multilayers (AuNPs-ML) with hexagonal lattice was successfully prepared by self-assembly technique. With strong surface plasmon resonance absorption and superior photothermal effect, the sample substrate of AuNPs-ML exhibited high signal sensitivity and low background noise for the detection of model analyte of glucose without additional matrixes in SALDI-MS. Furthermore, compared to merchant matrixes of α-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid (CHCA) and 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB), the sample substrate of AuNPs-ML was demonstrated to ameliorate the quality of mass spectra, including signal strength, background interference and signal/noise (S/N) ratio. The sucrose and tryptophan were also measured to show the extensive applications of AuNPs-ML sample substrate for the detections of small molecules in SALDI-MS. Most importantly, the remarkable reproducibility of glucose mass spectra with relative signal of 7.3% was obtained by the use of AuNPs-ML sample substrate for SALDI-MS. The homogeneous sample substrate of AuNPs-ML greatly improved the quality of mass spectra because of its strong absorption of laser energy, low specific heat, high heat conductivity and extraordinary homogeneity. We believe that AuNPs-ML could be a practical sample substrate for small molecule detection in SALDI-MS.
