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

Copper nanoclusters (CuNCs) are an attractive alternative to other metal nanoclusters. The synthesis of CuNCs is highly efficient and fast, with low-cost and without any complicated manipulation. Because of their tunable fluorescence and low toxicity, CuNCs have been highly exploited for biochemical sensing. This review (with 172 refs.) summarizes the progress that has been made in the field in the past years. Following an introduction into the fundamentals of CuNCs, the review first focuses on synthetic methods and the fluorescence properties of CuNCs (with subsections on the use of proteins, peptides, DNA and other molecules as templates). This is followed by a section on the use of CuNCs in fluorometric assays, with subsections on the detection of small molecules, proteins, nucleic acids, various other biomolecules including drugs, and of pH values. A further large chapter summarizes the work related to environmental analyses, specifically on determination of metal ions, anions and pollutants. Graphical abstract Schematic representation of the synthesis and potential applications of copper nanocluster (CuNCs) in biochemical analysis, emphatically reflected in some vital areas such as small molecule analysis, biomacromolecule monitoring, cell imaging, ions detection, toxic pollutant, etc.
