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.
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
Theoretically, sandwich immunoassay is more sensitive and has a wider working range than that of competitive format. However, it has been thought that small molecules cannot be detected by the sandwich format due to their limited size. In the present study, we proposed a novel strategy for achieving sandwich immunoassay of β-lactams with low molecular weights. Firstly, five β-lactam antibiotics were selected to bind with penicillin binding protein (PBP)2x* to form complexes. Then, monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies against PBP2x*-β-lactams complexes were produced by animal immunization. Subsequently, the optimal pairing antibodies were utilized to establish sandwich immunoassay for detection of 18 PBP2x*-β-lactam complexes. Among them, ceftriaxone could be detected at as low as 1.65 ng/mL with working range of 1-1000 ng/mL in milk. To reveal the detection mechanism, computational chemistry and molecular recognition study were carried out. The results showed that β-lactams with a large size and complex structures maybe conducive to induce conformational changes of PBP2x*, and then exhibit greater possibility of being detected by sandwich immunoassay after combination with PBP2x*. This study provides insights for subsequent investigations of anti-metatype antibody screening and sandwich immunoassay establishment for small-molecule detection.
