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

Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) represents an emerging biomarker of liquid biopsies for the development of precision cancer diagnostics and therapeutics. However, sensitive detection of ctDNA remains challenging, due to their short half-life and low concentrations in blood samples. In this study, we report a new method to address this challenge by integrating cycled enzymatic DNA amplification technique and Au nanoparticle@silicon-assisted surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technique. We have demonstrated a reproducible identification of a single-base-mutated ctDNA sequence of diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas (DIPGs), with the limit of detection (LOD) as low as 9.1 fM in the spiked blood samples. This approach can be used to analyze trace amounts of ctDNA in translational medicine for early diagnosis, therapeutic effect monitoring, and prognosis of patients with cancer.
