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

In this study, we investigated a novel aflatoxin biosensor based on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition by aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and developed electrochemical biosensors based on a sodium alginate biopolymer as a new matrix for acetylcholinesterase immobilization. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was performed as a convenient transduction method to evaluate the AChE activity through the oxidation of the metabolic product, thiocholine. Satisfactory analytical performances in terms of high sensitivity, good repeatability, and long-term storage stability were obtained with a linear dynamic range from 0.1 to 100 ng/mL and a low detection limit of 0.1 ng/mL, which is below the recommended level of AFB1 (2 µg/L). The suitability of the proposed method was evaluated using the samples of rice supplemented with AFB1 (0.5 ng/mL). The selectivity of the AChE-biosensor for aflatoxins relative to other sets of toxic substances (OTA, AFM 1) was also investigated.
