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

Nanomechanical mass spectrometry is a recent technological breakthrough that enables the real-time analysis of single molecules. In contraposition to its extreme mass sensitivity is a limited capture cross-section that can hinder measurements in a practical setting. Here we show that weak-coupling between devices in resonator arrays can be used in nanomechanical mass spectrometry to parallelize the measurement. This coupling gives rise to asymmetric amplitude peaks in the vibrational response of a single nanomechanical resonator of the array, which coincide with the natural frequencies of all other resonators in the same array. A rigorous theoretical model is derived that explains the physical mechanisms and describes the practical features of this parallelization. We demonstrate the significance of this parallelization through inertial imaging of analytes adsorbed to all resonators of an array, with the possibility of simultaneously detecting resonators placed at distances a hundred times larger than their own physical size.
