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

This work reports for the first time the preparation and performance of a nanosensor for the simultaneous detection of metanil yellow and fast green, which are toxic food dyes. For the development of this sensitive platform, the surface of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was modified with calixarene and gold nanoparticles. The sensing ability of the designed nanosensor (calix8/Au NPs/GCE) was tested by cyclic voltammetry, differential pulse voltammetry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The influence of a number of parameters was investigated for optimizing the conditions to achieve the best response of the target analytes. Due to the synergistic activity of calix[8]arene and Au nanoparticles, the calix8/Au NPs/GCE nanocomposite was found to significantly enhance the signals of the selected food dyes in comparison to bare GCE. Under optimized conditions, limits of detection for metanil yellow and fast green were found to be 9.8 and 19.7 nM, respectively, at the calix8/Au NPs/GCE. The designed sensing platform also demonstrated figures of merit when applied for the sensing of food dyes in real water and juice samples. Moreover, high percent recovery, reproducibility, and stability suggested applicability of the designed electrochemical platform for real sample analysis.
