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

Ultrasensitive and low-fouling microRNA electrochemical biosensors were successfully constructed by introducing thiol-terminated antifouling molecules (peptide sequence, polyethylene glycol, or mercapto alcohol) onto the surface of polyaniline-modified electrodes. For the three kinds of antifouling materials investigated, the newly designed and synthesized peptide exhibited superior antifouling ability to others, and it could effectively reduce the nonspecific adsorption of proteins and even prevent the fouling effect of serum. Compared with microRNA biosensors without antifouling capability, or those modified with polyethylene glycol or mercapto alcohol, the biosensor modified with the designed zwitterionic peptide showed the highest specificity for single-base mismatch, three-base mismatch, and completely complementary microRNAs. Most interestingly, the experimental results indicated that the introduction of antifouling molecules to the sensing interfaces did not significantly change the sensitivity of the biosensor. The strategy of constructing antifouling biosensors based on newly synthesized zwitterionic peptides and conducting polymers can be promisingly extended to the development of other electrochemical sensors and biosensors without encountering biofouling. Graphical abstract Ultrasensitive and low-fouling microRNA electrochemical biosensors were constructed by introducing thiol-terminated antifouling molecules (peptide sequence, polyethylene glycol, or mercapto alcohol) onto the surface of polyaniline-modified electrodes. The biosensor modified with the designed zwitterionic peptide showed the highest specificity amongst four kinds of biosensors.
