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

Conventional enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is commonly used for Ochratoxin A (OTA) screening, but it is limited by low sensitivity and harmful competing antigens of enzyme-OTA conjugates. Herein, a bifunctional M13 bacteriophage with OTA mimotopes fused on the p3 protein and biotin modified on major p8 proteins was introduced as an eco-friendly competing antigen and enzyme container for enhanced sensitivity. Mercaptopropionic acid-modified quantum dots (MPA-QDs), which are extremely sensitive to hydrogen peroxide, were chosen as fluorescent signal transducers that could manifest glucose oxidase-induced fluorescence quenching in the presence of glucose. On these bases, a highly sensitive and eco-friendly fluorescent immunoassay for OTA sensing was developed. Under optimized conditions, the proposed method demonstrates a good linear detection of OTA from 4.8 to 625 pg/mL and a limit of detection (LOD) of 5.39 pg/mL. The LOD is approximately 26-fold lower than that of a conventional horse radish peroxidase (HRP) based ELISA and six-fold lower than that of a GOx-OTA conjugate-based fluorescent ELISA. The proposed method also shows great specificity and accepted accuracy for analyzing OTA in real corn samples. The detection results are highly consistent with those obtained using the ultra-performance liquid chromatography-fluorescence detection method, indicating the high reliability of the proposed method for OTA detection. In conclusion, the proposed method is an excellent OTA screening platform over a conventional ELISA and can be easily extended for sensing other analytes by altering specific mimic peptide sequences in phages.
